Almost a year later and no news. Has the book been published yet? It would be a real shame if this one doesn't reach the bookshelves.

Dear Sirs and friends!

Today my publisher informed me that the book is in a printinghouse and will be soon printed. He hopes that the book will be will go on sale in October - November of this year.
I think that you will be not disappointed!
I and my colleague we work above continuation of this series.
We hope that after the first part there will be also a second part. And as we already for 80 percent write books about 291IAP(1941-1947) and 402
IAP(1941-2006)

Yours faithfully to you friends!

PS
It would be interesting to you to read about new regiments of the VVS?
As we plan to issue the whole series regemental
monographies -units histories.

Congratulations Vlad
Your book looks very interesting, I'll probably buy a copy. I'd be very interested in a history in english of any of the IAPs which fought against Finland in 1941 - 44.

Juha

Hello!

Small comments on your questions.
The book has the code - ISBN 0978069609

The book contains many appendices
Including -
Victories of the 812th IAP pilots on the Kalinin Front
Pilot losses of the 812th IAP on the Stalingrad Front
Victories of the 812th IAP pilots on the Stalingrad Front
Combat results for 812th IAP pilots on the Kalinin and Stalingrad Fronts
Pilots of the 812th IAP transferred to newly formed regiments
Pilot losses of the 812th IAP in the Kuban battles
Victories of the 812th IAP pilots in the Kuban battles
Pilot losses of the 812th IAP in the South Ukraine battles
Victories of the 812th IAP in the South Ukraine battles
Etc. more than 20 appendices.

Denes, in the separate chapter I have touched theme Hs.129 and I think you as the expert in this plane will find interesting moments, as well as all victories of pilots above Hs.129.

Whether I not precisely can tell will the book to be on sale onamazon.
The publisher has told me that prepares
Internet page on which there will be an opportunity to order the book.
The Internet page as he said,will be ready in middle of September.

Best regards
Vlad

Privet!

How about 159 IAP ? Similarily to 812 IAP not elevated to Guards status. Reading Finnish materials - published and archival - it seems La-5 were regarded the most dangerous opponent (1943-44). In 13VA there was only one La-5 regiment - 159 IAP. I suppose Andrej Dikov will take care of the Baltic Fleet La-5 regiments anyway?


Cheers,

Kari
