Identification of German Aircraft FM 30-35

The material contained in this manual had been secured from many sources. It was the best material available at the time but was incomplete and, in some respects, inaccurate.

This manual contains illustrations (photos, illustrations, and multi-view silhouette drawings) with explanatory data of German aircraft. It was used for the instruction of officers and men in the appearance and general characteristics of German aircraft.

Being published so soon after the U.S. entered the war, much of the material was inaccurate. Some of the aircraft were never manufactured in quantity or even entered service. This manual shows how precious little was known about enemy aircraft at the time and provides an interesting view of the state of intelligence.

First published 11 March 1942 by the War Dept., Washington, D.C., as a soft cover book measuring 4.25 × 6.75 inches.
