Ikarus IK-2 Kagero Monographs Special Edition 3D

[vvkj41]

Well Stig, it seems that you pull the leg...


I would like to inform you that the book Ikarus IK-2 is published. Monographs Special Edition in 3D, No.13 by Kagero.

As for the Hawker book, I also want to thank to all of you who selflessly helped me. The Ikarus IK-2 book follows Rogožarski IK-3 book (Kagero, 2018) and in the same Edition. It also contains the use of this exotic aircraft in the Royal Yugoslav Army Air Force (VVKJ) service in the peacetime and in the 1941 April war and finally in the Croatian Air Force.

The book is A4 size, hard cover, 196 pages (again) and weighs exactly 1 kg… It contains two maps, as well as Appendix 9 (Places with Geographical Coordinates) with the exact GPS coordinates of each place (40+) mentioned.

Carefully selected photographs (96), official & unofficial statements and documents, including two so far unknown original documents from Laboratoire Eiffel IK-2 wind tunnel testing!

Exactly 140 superbly detailed 3D renders and profiles by my friend Branislav Mirkov, plus 18 tables of 1/48 superb technical drawings. Six tables of 1/72 drawings and huge sole 1/32 A2 table.

My thanks goes to Kagero Publishing and Mr. Damian Majsak, who decided to have it published and make it available for all interested readers, as well to Maciej Lacina and Łukasz Maj from Kagero for an excellent cooperation and support!

I hope you will enjoy reading this one as well!
