Another excellent example of the Osprey Aircraft of the Aces series. The Soviets used a large array of different aircraft in their battles against the Nazis in World War II. Despite many of them being outdated and/or outclassed by the German Luftwaffe, there were a surprising number of aces in the Russian air ranks. This book gives a nice accounting of the Russian efforts and is a necessity for any hobbyist interested WWII aircraft and air battles. This led, I think, to at least one additional entry on Soviet aces in the series as more information became unearthed & unclassified in later years.

i enjoyed this book very much, as i have the others in the series. the book is full of information about the aircraft as well as those who flew it. there is so much information in the book for those building a model of the aircraft,or for those who interested in the history of the 2nd w/w. i bought the book to add to the series of books in this series, all of the books have met or exceeded my expectations. the information is concise and the drawings are accurate.
Very reasonable price for a treasure trove of interesting information.
