The prevailing Western view of Russia's Cold War strategic
nuclear weapons policy is that it resulted from a two-part
interplay between the leaders of the Communist Party and the
military. Steven J. Zaloga has found that a third contributor--the
Russian defense industry--also played a vital role.
Drawing from elusive Russian source material and interviews with
many proud Russian and Ukrainian engineers, Zaloga presents a
definitive account of Russia's strategic forces, who built them,
and why. The book is the first in English to refer to the weapons
by their actual Soviet names, providing the bedrock for future
works. Helpful appendices list U.S., NATO, and other designations,
and the illustrations provide clear visual references.
