HateDread 13 Posted March 27, 2012 Hey all, I'm searching for books as per the above (including books about the hardware rather than the tactics - i.e. tanks, and with a modern focus (i.e. cold-war to now and into the future)). For example, I have a fantastic book that breaks down some WW2 land battles (although not in the greatest of detail), with some pictures and a map or two. Anything like that would be good too. I love a good diagram/image here and there, so no novels, please! Any ideas? - HateDread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rye1 22 Posted March 28, 2012 Hey mate... There are always manuals. There are a few translated manuals of Russian armour and APC's. http://www.scribd.com/doc/33885567/DIA-Soviet-Tank-Battalion-Tactics http://www.scribd.com/doc/65461073/Armor-Jane-s-Tank-Recognition-Guide http://www.scribd.com/collections/3333959/warbooks http://www.scribd.com/collections/3362912/Militaria There's always random PDF's on technicals you can find all over google (like weaponry technical briefs). Hope this helps... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkhorse 1-6 16 Posted March 29, 2012 "The Battle For The Falklands" by Max Hastings and Simon Jenkins is a good one, as is most of Tom Clancy's non-fiction work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dekster 1 Posted March 29, 2012 I have a book called "Combat", it's from the 80's, early 90's, and most things are explained in it. From patrolling on foot, to sniper stalking to tank tactics. It's not exactly what you're looking for, but can be quite handy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakerod 254 Posted March 29, 2012 These might be useful. They are not books though: http://stevespages.com/page7c.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
