by Yefim Gordon and Dmitriy Komissarov

  • Used
(Subject: Aviation - General) The Russian Air Force’s strategic bomber component was inherited from the Soviet Air Force after the disintegration of the Soviet Union. It began by recovering some of the heavy bomber assets left outside its borders, including Tu-95MS Bear-Hs based in Kazakhstan, eight Tu-160 Blackjacks and three Tu-22M Backfire-Cs taken over by the Ukraine. Flown by the Russian Air Force’s 37th Air Army these bombers were involved in, amongst others, the military operation to against Georgia over South Ossetia in august 2008 and a visit to Venezuela by three Tu-160s which caused much consternation in the USA. The book includes development and design history of the Blackjack, Bear and Backfire, their armament, unit badges and insignia. With over 500 photographs, many previously unreleased, detailed line drawings and colour profiles of individual names and nose art, this book provides a wealth of information for the historian and modeler alike.
