Soviet Aces Volume 2
I was looking through Ozon.ru and saw that Mikhail Bykov's (Owl-99) volume 2 of Soviet Aces 1941-1945 Victories of Stalin's Falcons (in Russian) is now out. The ad states it has about 3200 aces with more then 5 victories in 656 pages (471 rubles). I haven't seen it offered in the Russian books stores in the U.S. yet.

Re: Soviet Aces Volume 2
Thanks for the good news!
I already ordered vol. 1 through Books.ru. I will try to order it again (although they don't appear to have an English version of the web site, so it will be rather difficult for me).

Re: Soviet Aces Volume 2
Frank, I sent an email to www.bukinist.com in New York asking about it but haven't got a reply yet. I got the 1st volume from them along with several other books in Russian on the air war in the east.

Re: Soviet Aces Volume 2
To order in the U.S. go to www.vasha-kniga.com and type on the search асы and it will take you to both books that are for sale. Now it's just a wait for Volume 3 on the Navy aces.

But Vol 2 seems to contain Soviet Navy aces? At least KBF and SF. Or am I seeing things? Kari

Re: Soviet Aces Volume 2
Kari,
If you already have a copy then that is probably correct. I only remember the author telling me that he was planning on a 3rd volume for the navy but if he changed his mind and did it all in one that's great.
