AIR WAR OVER RUSSIA

The massive forces of Germany and the Soviet Union slugging it out on the Eastern Front - the most important theatre of operations in World War II. The book discusses operations and the evolving aerial strategies adopted by the Luftwaffe and the Russians. Initially outclassed and outperformed by the might of the Luftwaffe, Soviet equipment and tactics improved immeasurably during the war, thereby helping to negate the potency of the Luftwaffe in the various theatres. Supplementing the author's well-researched and authoritative text are over 160 black and white illustrations including line drawings and contemporary photographs.
