C’est en 1942 que les premiers Ju 290 furent utilisés par la Luftwaffe. Il s’agissait de deux avions de pre-série Ju 290 A-0 obtenus à partir de Ju 90 (de) civils, et de cinq Ju 290 A-1 assemblés en tant que tel. Plusieurs de ces avions participèrent à la bataille de Stalingrad pendant l’hiver 1942-1943. Précisément, ils participèrent au pont aérien mis en place pour ravitailler la 6e armée de Paulus, alors encerclée dans la ville. La production de série prit place dans l’usine Letov de Prague. Après la version A-1, une version A-2 de patrouille maritime emportait un radar. Des versions A-3, A-4, et A-5 ont suivi, elles se distinguent essentiellement par leur armement. Soixante-cinq appareils furent produits.

Le Panzerkampfwagen IV (PzKpfW IV), souvent appelé Panzer IV était un char d’assaut utilisé par l’Allemagne nazie durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Conçu initialement comme char d’appui-feu, avec un canon de 75 mm court, pour le Panzerkampfwagen III, il finit par remplacer ce dernier quand les chars alliés devinrent trop protégés pour celui-ci. Rééquipé avec un canon long antichar, le PzKpfW IV fut le principal char allemand pendant la seconde partie de la guerre avec plus de 9000 exemplaires produits et donna naissance à de nombreuses versions.

The Imperial Japanese Navy went to war with 17 light cruisers and another three cruiser-sized training ships. Of these, most were 5,500-ton ships designed to act as destroyer squadron flagships. This made them much different in capabilities and mission from their American counterparts. During the war, the Japanese built another five light cruisers, all but one of which maintained the design premise of being able to serve as destroyer squadron flagships. During the war, Japanese light cruisers were active throughout the Pacific performing many missions in addition to their flagship duties. Mark Stille continues Osprey’s coverage of the IJN of WWII with this concise and complete study of all 25 ships, from their design and development to their ultimate fates. Detailed Osprey artwork and rare period photographs from the Fukui collection held in Kure, Japan illustrate this discussion.

Chars IS – Joseph Staline

Une documentation signée Wydawnictwo Militaria le livre «Chars IS – Joseph Staline – Wydawnictwo 294» .

La série des chars Josef Stalin soviétiques a son origine dans le développement du prototype KV-13, qui devait allier la protection d’un char lourd avec la mobilité d’un char moyen. Ce programme avait donné lieu à un char de 31,7 tonnes, armé d’un canon de 76,2 mm, caractérisé surtout par un emploi généralisé d’éléments coulés pour la caisse et la tourelle. Il combinait le moteur et la suspension des chars KV avec les chenilles du Char T-34, la caisse était blindée à 120 mm et la tourelle à 85 mm, mais les 600 ch du moteur lui permettait d’atteindre 55 km/h. Cependant il présentait de nombreuses imperfections et défauts de jeunesse, une accélération insuffisante, ce qui fut résolu dès juillet en adoptant la boîte dessinée pour le KV-1s, et de fréquents déraillements de chenilles qui furent réglés par l’emploi d’un nouveau modèle apparu sur les deux nouveaux exemplaires produits en décembre, qui apportaient de nombreuses autres améliorations, dont des tourelles redessinées.
