Much of the fascination which Soviet aircraft and its associated
aerospace industry holds for the analyst, enthusiast or ordinary
member of the public, stems from the thick fog of secrecy that
enveloped the industry throughout the 'Cold War' until the collapse
of the Soviet Union in 1990/91. Until then details which in case of
Western designs could be found from the nearest reference book was
in the case of Russian aircraft often a matter of conjecture and an
inaccurate article written by a western journalist. This author has
been fortunate to have obtained much original and previously
unpublished information from the former Soviet Union for this
unique volume on the history of the Soviet Aircraft Industry Since
1909. It gives the reader a clear understanding of the unique
characteristics of Soviet-designed aircraft, in particular military
types that at times caused great concern in the West with regards
to the technical advances inherent in their design. The book is as
much a history of the USSR as it is its, aerospace industry,
culminating as it does with President Putin's Russian Federation.
