Originally created as an attack aircraft, with the designation A-26, the Invader was intended to replace the Douglas A-20, North Review: Excellent little volume on the A-26/B-26 series of aircraft - Modelers and aviation enthusiasts alike will likely enjoy this volume from the Legends of Warfare series. It contains many well-printed and well-chosen photographs of this iconic attack aircraft, including the A26K which is my favorite incarnation of this aircraft. Many of the photographs are in colour, and a wide range of images have been chosen to really illustrate the history of this aircraft very well. There are also plenty of detail images and if you are a fan of these aircraft this book should appeal to you! Recommended!

Mr Doyle has also studded his account with a commendable array of scale-drawings, tending more informative than mere photographs. The drawback is that none reveals its scale. The A-26 Invader was designed to replace the A-20 Havoc, the B-25 Mitchell and B-26 Marauder-- to simplify production, then maintenance in action, as well as provide greater firepower, a heavier bomb-load and superior performance. Production problems delayed its advent until September 1943, but it then excelled, operating well into the jet age. After WW2, it saw combat in Korea and Vietnam, also in covert roles in Cuba, Indonesia, The Congo, Angola and Biafra, and was retired at last in 1969, after much evolution and improvement. What an achievement! What an aircraft! What a book! Nonetheless, a final gripe: Mr Doyle should have written more about the Invader in WW2 (condensed into one third of a page); the same applies to Korea (another third of a page). Some photographs might have been sacrificed to create space, since several add little. I've doffed a star in protest. Hell, no! I've added it back again. The book nestles comfortably in my library among similar Legends of Warfare publications on the Havoc, Mitchell and Marauder. Buy them-- you'll see what I mean. A final plus-point: they're all written by Mr Doyle. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/607779897-a-26-invader-douglas-a-26-b-26-from-wwii](https://www.desertcart.be/products/607779897-a-26-invader-douglas-a-26-b-26-from-wwii) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-09-29*
