Having entered the Great Patriotic War on fighters, inferior in all to German aircraft, the "Stalinist falcons" completed the Second World War on the magnificent La-7 and Yak-3, superior not only to "messers" and "fockers," but also "spitfires" with "lightnings." It was on La-7 that the best Soviet ace Ivan Kozhedub fought, one of the first to shoot down the Me-262 jet and fill up a couple of American mustangs in the sky over Berlin. The victorious end of the war and the transfer of the country "to peaceful rails" allowed aircraft manufacturers to switch from wooden structures to all-metal ones. This is how the last piston fighters of the USSR appeared - the La-9 "killer of Flying Fortresses" equipped with four 23-mm cannons and the La-11 escort fighter, which was distinguished by its huge range, which happened to shoot down American reconnaissance aircraft that violated the Soviet border and fight in the skies of China and Korea. In this book you will find comprehensive information about the latest propeller-driven fighters, which became the crown of the development of piston aviation in the USSR. The collector's edition on premium coated paper is illustrated with hundreds of exclusive drawings and photographs.
