InProgress Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 Anyone knows some good books about bf110? Looking for something like memories of pilot or/and something like history of units with all bunch of info about tactics, events, details about every model etc. Must be in english and on amazon

Cybermat47 Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 Messerschmitt Bf-110 Zerstörer in Action from squadron/signal publications might have what you’re looking for. It has technical details, a service history of the aircraft, and interviews with pilots.
MiloMorai Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 The Squadron book is OK and inexpensive but not that great. Osprey (it has its faults as well) has an Aces book on the Bf110.
ACG_Invictus Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 https://www.amazon.com/Messerschmitt-110-210-410-Illustrated/dp/0764317849/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1541101633&sr=1-1&keywords=messerschmitt+110+210+410#customerReviews Excellent book. Ignore the two sub-5 star ratings, one just says "poor" without details and the other acknowledges the book is great for technical detail but doesn't have much in the way of engagements. Kinda silly comment since it's clearly meant to talk about the technical aspects of the various models of the 110, 210 and 410 rather than a combat history.

InProgress Posted November 2, 2018 Author Posted November 2, 2018 Thanks, i will probably start with bf110 aces and Enemy In The Dark The Story of a Luftwaffe Night-Fighter Pilot. Good price, some of these books have insane price :S Reason i need it from amazon is delivery costs, my country does not have $ or € and shipping it from uk or usa is way too much. German amazon has fairy good price for shipping.
LLv34_Flanker Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 S! About Bf110 in Eastern Front try to find Johannes Kaufmann´s book. Served in Luftwaffe 1935-1945, flew 110 in SKG 210 during Barbarossa. Flew 110 during attack and retreat as well. Was later trained for 109 to serve in defense of the Reich at the end of war.
