LEMAY’S B-29 STRATEGIC BOMBING CAMPAIGN
Lardas.As the United States pushed Imperial Japan back towards Tokyo Bay, the US Army Air Force deployed the first of a new bomber to the theater. The B-29 Superfortress was complex, troubled, and hugely advanced. It was the most expensive weapons system of the war, and formidably capable. But at the time, no strategic bombing campaign had ever brought about a nation’s surrender. Not only that, but Japan was half a world away, and the US had no airfields even within the extraordinary range of the B-29. This highly illustrated book walks you through the progression of the Japanese Bombing campaign: from the initial struggles, to the radical and devasting tactics drawn up by General Lemay and finally the successful deafeat of Imperial Japan.
