The more you keep in mind that this is basically a collection of case studies the more satisfied that you'll be with this work. Though I would have liked to have seen a better effort at citing the government documents included in the biography (at least giving the repository where viewed) there are some very interesting stories here, particularly in regards to rotary-winged aircraft and combat drones.

Focusing on the U.S. military's development of special aircraft types during World War II, including many experimental aircraft and one-off secret projects, this book shows how U.S. aviation designs and weapons progressed under the pressure of global warfare. From the state-of-the-art aircraft at the beginning of the war, to the advances during the conflict, each special type is covered in detail: armed photo reconnaissance, catapult launched seaplanes, naval floatplanes, autogyros, and special-operations armed drones. Often described as less glamorous than fighters and bombers, these special types of WWII combat aircraft offer a unique contribution to military aviation and aeronautical advancement.
