Twin Dragons: P-38 Lightnings Over Burma - Paperback
by J. Kozlovsky (Author)
The 459th Fighter Squadron, also known by the nickname "Twin Dragons," was the only P-38 Lightning squadron to fly exclusively in the skies over Burma during World War Two. The rugged P-38, with its long-range and ability to bring back its pilots safely on just one engine, proved to be the best aircraft for the types of missions the 459thFS would participate in during the war. The squadron's first missions were in November 1943 at the height of the war in Burma when the Japanese forces were attempting to invade India from its bases inside Burma. Its main role was to gain air superiority by destroying the Japanese Army Air Force over its own territory. Fighter sweeps and dangerous attacks on enemy airfields were normal types of missions. This book describes the combat missions of the Twin Dragons and includes black and white wartime photos along with flight simulator screenshots in color.
