Books and publications on Japanese aircraft

[edwest4]

I suggest:

Illustrated Warplane History - The X-Planes of Imperial Japanese Army & Navy, 1924-45.

ISBN 4-7663-3292-X. It is a Green Arrow publication. Copyright Shigeru Nohara

You might try Hobby Link Japan.

Yes, it's in Japanese, but there are a lot of drawings and a lot of photos.

If all goes well, the second volume should appear in fall/winter of 2013 or at the latest, sometime in 2014.

Cheers,

Ed

We are waiting for his second volume of "JAPANESE SECRET PROJECTS EXPERIMENTAL AIRCRAFT OF THE IJA AND IJN 1939-1945".

I'm already a bit skeptical of this book. The Tornado was not simply a Fi-103 with floats on it. In fact, that rendition of the Tornado isn't even close to the reality generally accepted. The attached image of a model of the Tornado is. Big difference. ;D

Hello guys,
Excuse me, but I was lucky to get the volume 3 of the "Encyclopedia of Japanese Aircraft...", widely used, of course. And I need a picture of the top of the cardboard box. To make a cover similar to the original.
Can you help me?
thanks

Sorry!! ;D
