Description:
This new photo album is number 37 in the MMPBooks/Stratus "Camera On" series and is the first to cover such a broad selection of Germany’s medium off-road passenger cars, including the Mittlerer geländegängiger Personenkraftwagen and related vehicles. It features over 140 photographs showing these vehicles in operational conditions, just as they were seen and used by the soldiers—often serving as both transport and shelter. Rather than polished official images, this volume presents the raw and authentic reality of wartime service. It is an invaluable reference for both military historians and modellers.
The Fiat G.55 Centauro was a single-engine single-seat World War II fighter aircraft. The FIAT G.55 was a fighter whose merits were undoubtedly greater than those that can be deduced from the short building figures or from its use in service. The value of this aircraft was shown when after the WW2 it was ordered to FIAT to resume the manufacturing of the aircraft bringing to life a new G.55 versions named G.55A and G.55B.
