Do not get me wrong-for anyone interested in the Sturmovik or for starters, this is quite a nice work but for its asking price, it offers too little IMHO
Shturmovik stands for ground-attack aircraft, nothing else.
I cannot comment on this particular title, but reading Ratrenin/Perov's Il-2 monography, I would say it was one of the best if not best aircraft monography I have ever seen.
