From the Battle of Britain onwards, the Luftwaffe became increasingly overextended as theatres of operations grew and new fronts were opened, often covering vast areas of territory as in the Desert and Russia. Spread over so many fronts, so much was asked of its pilots. Adolf Galland. The Luftwaffe fought on every front and in some of the worst conditions of WW2. By 1943 it was already outnumbered and having to combat increasing raids on Germany from the Western Allies. In the East, a rejuvenated Soviet Air Force was throwing massive numbers of bombers and fighters at an already over stretched Luftwaffe. Despite this, the German fighter pilots fought on in their Me109s and Fw190s. Some even managed to fly in combat with the Me262 jet. Published as a tribute to the Aces and pilots of the Luftwaffe back in 2007, Horrido! was an immediate success with collectors. Robert has chosen to depict the Luftwaffes premier fighter the Me109E in its most famous setting the Battle of Britain. Hauptmann Wolfgang Ewald leads pilots of I JG52 into combat in September 1940 through a towering cumulus scene. Soon they will engage RAF fighters and the call Horrido! will be heard once more the Luftwaffe equivalent of Tally Ho! Has original Military Gallery Certificate. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide. UK postage from £4.99, EU from £6.99, Rest of World from £8.99.
