D�s 1936, Henry Tizard, conseiller scientifique aup�s du Minist�re de l'Air britannique, avait proph�tis� que la cha�ne de radars en cours de d�veloppement sur les c�tes anglaises allait obliger les bombardiers ennemis � op�rer de nuit plut�t que de jour. Malgr� cet avertissement, la RAF a entam� la Seconde Guerre Mondiale sans v�ritable chasseur de nuit, ne pouvant utiliser dans ce r�le que des avions incapables de survivre dans les combats diurnes (Bristol Blenheim et Boulton Paul Defiant). D'abord rel�gu�e � des missions purement d�fensives, � l'oeil nu, la chasse de nuit s'est dot�e d'outils de plus en plus sophistiqu�s de d�tection et d'identification (radars sol-air et air-air, identification ami/ennemi), mais aussi de mesures �lectroniques de brouillage et de d�ception visant � induire l'ennemi en erreur afin de passer � l'offensive. Le combat � distance qui a oppos� les scientifiques britanniques � leurs homologues allemands lors du d�veloppement des outils radio et radar de chasse de nuit et leurs contre-mesures associ�es est probablement l'une des histoires les plus m�connues de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale. Cinq ans apr�s les premiers balbutiements de 1940, le Royaume-Uni b�n�ficiait d'un dispositif d�fensif unique au monde, comprenant des r�seaux complets de radars au sol et de communications. L'emploi de dizaines d'unit�s de chasse de nuit aguerries, �quip�es de de Havilland Mosquito NF 30 avec radar air-air, et peu apr�s d'avions � turbor�acteur Gloster Meteor ou de Havilland Vampire, �tait ainsi optimis�. Cette r�volution ne s'est pas faite sans un travail et des pertes consid�rables: des dizaines d'aviateurs ont �t� tu�s lors de vols de formation ou de routine, victimes d'une erreur qui aurait souvent �t� mineure de jour mais qui ne pardonnait pas de nuit. Ce livre, bas� sur un travail de recherche de plusieurs ann�es, raconte l'histoire de ces aviateurs, trop souvent oubli�e, y compris leur r�le lors du d�barquement en Normandie. S'int�grant au sein
