Soviet Heaven

5 Attachment(s)

Well for those who have an interest in Soviet WWII Aces and Aircraft, this forthcoming Trojca book should be a must have.
A4, 768 pages, 1043 pictures, 406 tables, 784 COLOUR PROFILES!!, 26 colour drawings of Decorations, 110 colour of Ranks.
170 Canadian Dollars (J.J.Fedorowicz)
I can only wonder what some of those 784 Profiles with those crazy slogans will look like.....

Re: Soviet Heaven

Great news AMC!

Soviet Union Air Aces – 1941-1945 (History of the Great Patriotic War)
November 2019
by Waldemar Trojca

Hard cover - large format
768 pages w/
1,043 photographs
406 tables
784 colour profiles

$170 CAD

"This monster is the first in his new series, History of the Great Patriotic War. It covers 381 pilots, their wartime careers (including the Russo-Finnish War and the War against Japan in the East), their aircraft and the decorations they were awarded, especially the Hero of the Soviet Union.

Cost is $170.00, a bargain when you consider the contents, the fact that it is the first such exhaustive study of this subject, and that the Soviet pilots (including women) carried a major load of the fighting in the early part of the air war. Their contribution must be recognized."

Re: Soviet Heaven

That's $128.06 USD - but it weighs a ton so the shipping/mailing cost is probably quite high.

There is an earlier but less fancy and pretty version of this:

Seidl, Hans D. Stalin’s Eagles: An Illustrated Study of the Soviet Aces of World War II and Korea. Atglen (PA): Schiffer Publishing Ltd., 1998. ISBN: 0-7643-0476-3. Hb. Dj. Oversize. 368p. Profusely illustrated with several hundred photos and 15 color profiles. Appendices. Glossary. Bibliography.

Originally sold new in 1998 for $59.95 US.
