2009 Calendars

There have been publications that have covered firearms, and armored vehicles, but never anything (that I am aware of) that has been dedicated to the land-based weapons of World War II. This was the seminal conflict for weapons development, expanding on the concepts introduced in the First World War, and advancing weapons technology at an amazing rate. Another technology that also advanced at this time was photography and, as cameras became widely available, the visual documentation of the Second World War is second to none. WWII Ordnance Illustrated is designed to bring all of those elements together for the serious student of weapons systems and military history. If you are interested in the weapons of World War II, this is the magazine for you.

WWII Ordnance Illustrated is a quarterly publication, available by purchase exclusively from Armor Plate Press. Interested writers and researchers are encouraged to contact the editor. While this publication does not actively seek advertisers, opportunities exist to sponsor individual issues. If you would like to sponsor an issue, please contact us to learn more about upcoming issues.
