This book reveals Soviet tactics for destroying NATO warships using 'Blinders' and its use by Libya and Iraq. Yefim Gordon, of Moscow, Russia, is a noted Russian aviation historian and writer who has had several books published in the west. Vladimir Rigmant, of Moscow, Russia, is an aviation historian specializing in the Tupolev design bureau.

Soviet
X-Planes
The
Osprey Encyclopedia of Russian Aircraft This book is a must-have for all people interested in aviation of our
"coldwar-eastern enemy". The often different approach of russian
designers to aircraft design gave us some very surprising en extotic
aircraft types. Much more than in the west, soviet aircraft were being
designed and built for an operational purpose. The result often was an
aircraft, very rugged and suited to it's operational requirements but
often lacking in economic operations. Solutions were solutions, no mather
how expensive or uneconomical. Off course some of the soviet aircraft are
still unrivalled in their class. The IL76 is still one off the most rugged
heavy transports and if you look at the technical propulsion system of the
Lockheed X-35 S/VTOL demonstrator, one can see that it is directly derived
from the YAK141 prototype. The russian designers often were much more
practical in approach and with limited resources they achieved very much.
This book contains them all. From the early "kites" till
Ekranoplans! The definitive work on this subject! |
