Prior to the Allied D-Day assault on Normandy, France, rumors had already been circulating that high-tech Nazi super-weapons ( wunderwaffe) had reached or were near completion. At the war's end, a mad scramble ensued to discover the enemy's secrets, fueled in large part by a US desire to regain its technological edge and to keep these weapons out of Soviet hands. Operation Lusty (LUftwaffe Secret TechnologY) was in full swing.
In Operation Lusty, aviation historian Graham M.Simons delivers a comprehensive and detailed history of the program while cataloging the advanced war equipment that was ultimately discovered-from U-boats, carriers, and battleships to radar equipment and operating systems, to fighters, bombers, rockets, and other V-weapons. With access to previously unreleased documentation and wide-ranging archival materials, Simons distinguishes what was fact in the Nazi arsenal from what was pure fantasy, dreamed up by Joseph Goebbels's powerful propaganda machine.
Operation Lusty sheds new light on the furious race for postwar technological superiority, and offers an insider's look at the full spectrum of military spoils that were gained.
