This is a project I did with a friend - Claudio Lamas - a couple of years ago.
I did the design and illustrations of yhe entire book and Caudio wrote it. This is the second version, the first was done in portuguese, printed by Borreli. This second was printed by a German publisher - Eqip.De - and soon there will a third version also will be printed by them but, this time, in German.

Luftwaffe Confidential
The main idea of the book is not only to show the Germans projects developed beteween 1939 and 1945, but relate them to the main changes in the aeronautical design and it's reflection up to now in the civil and military area among other area.

Some of the subjects of the book:

swept wing, 
swept back wings, 
growing wings, tailless,
V tail (butterfly tail), 
T tail, parasite airplanes,
vtol, flying wings,... 

An important point is that, it is not a political book. It's only about research and development.
