This work focuses on the Japanese bomber killers of World War II. Responsible for shooting B-29s out of the skies of Japan, these pilots used a range of tactics, including ramming. This book includes first-hand accounts, archival Japanese material, and scale plans of all major fighter variants.

The Japanese naval Air Force pilots achieved ace status during the eight years of near constant war in the Far East. They fought for control of the skies and their exploits are detailed in this volume of the "Aircraft of the Aces" series.

Japan's top aces doubled the best efforts of the Allies due to pre-war experience in China and Manchuria and their excellent aircraft types from Nakajima and Kawasaki. Described here in detail, the book also features colour uniform plates showing pilots of the period.
