Gordon & Komissarov. By the end of World War II, the air forces of the United States and Great Britain had developed their own viable jet fighters, while in contrast, the Soviet Union lagged behind - until 1946 when the British Labor government gifted the Soviets the latest propulsion technology. Aided by formerly classified bureau files and official documents, you'll examine the jet-powered aircraft developed in response by the Soviet Union, including those designed by Mikoyan, Yakovlev, Lavochkin, Sukhoi, and Alekseyev. 432 pages, 750 photographs, 8¼"x 11¾", hardcover.
