The Dutch Naval Air Force (MLD) played a crucial but often overlooked role in the early months of the Pacific War following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. With a fleet of 175 aircraft, the MLD significantly outnumbered its American and British allies. However, the MLD suffered significant losses during the three-month conflict, losing 50% of its personnel and 80% of its aircraft as the Netherlands colonial empire was dismantled. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the MLD's operations during the Japanese invasion of the Dutch East Indies, including an examination of the failed evacuation of Java for the first time in English.
