An illustrated account of the conflicts between the RAF's Hurricane and Spitfire aircraft and the Luftwaffe's Ju 87 Stuka in the skies over France, the Channel, and southern England. The story of the Luftwaffe's Ju 87 Stuka and its use against British targets in 1940 has been overshadowed by its reputation as "food for the parallel fighters" of the Hurricane, Spitfire, and Defiants. In reality, it was a formidable weapon when used correctly and remained in operational use throughout World War II, gaining iconic status through its operations at Dunkirk and the Battle of Britain. Aviation expert Andy Saunders addresses the misconceptions surrounding the Ju 87 with this new assessment of its famous actions in the skies over France, the Channel, and southern England. Enhanced by individual testimonies, rare photographs, and new artworks and diagrams, the story unfolds to reveal how the Stuka defended itself against incoming fighters and how, in turn, the RAF pilots learned to destroy the aircraft.
