  Equipped mainly with Messerschmitt's classic BF 109, the JG 27 elite Luftwaffe Unit wreaked havoc against RAF squadrons in the Middle East during the Afrika Korps campaign. This book describes the design and production of the BF 109, and draws on first-hand accounts to chart its combat history in North Africa, and to tell the stories of the aces who flew the fighter. It also includes new colour illustrations and cutaways, as well as contemporary photographs.
