I am also reading "Battle Flight: RAF Air Defence Projects and Weapons Since 1945" by Chris Gibson. This is about British Cold War air defences as denoted in the title, much of which were paper projects and prototypes that were never fielded. This is an area that I know little about.
A few decades ago, Singapore did field the Bloodhound surface to air missile (SAM). This is examined in the book by Gibson.
I have read a few books about the Battle of Stalingrad over the years. I have also read much more on the Eastern Front.
"Winter Storm: The Battle for Stalingrad and the Operation to Rescue 6th Army" by Hans Wijers has just arrived in the mail. I have always wanted to read more accounts of the firefights in the tractor factory, the city fighting in general. This volume should have the narratives I seek.
And as I usual, I am reading numerous others, each at various stages of completion.
