Osprey Publishing have launched a new series of reference books under the title ''Duel'' which, simply put, take two vehicles or aircraft from opposing sides and compare them... More details of this interesting initiative can be seen:

The armored editions look like a detailed study of a book called "Tank vs. Tank" by Kenneth Macksey. It will be interesting how much more detail can be gleaned by the fellas at Osprey.

I look forward to this series.

I've just been sent Firefly Vs. Tiger for review by Osprey and, I have to say, this promises to be a VERY interesting series - watch this space!
