This is an account of of the Luftwaffe's only long-range maritime fighter unit and its battles against the RAF, the US Army Air Force (USAAF) and the US Navy (USN) between July 1942 and August 1944 in the skies above the Bay of Biscay off the coast of France. The book uses personal accounts of German and Allied survivors. The appendices give details of: the unit's commanding officers and aircrew; the 109 known 'kills' matched to Allied losses and the 88 combat losses of the unit, together with the details of those who shot the aircraft down. There is also a list of the 26 aircraft lost in accidents and further aircraft interned in Spain. There are many black and white photographs, mostly of German origin, which have not been published previously.
