This fascinating biography of a Russian flying ace offers a rare glimpse into the role of the Soviet Air Force during the Korean War.
Nikolai Vasil'evich Sutiagin was the top-scoring Soviet flying ace of the Korean War. He flew his MiG-15 in lethal dogfights against American Sabres and Australian Meteors, winning twenty-two victories. For his distinguished service, he was named a Hero of the Soviet Union, the Soviet military’s highest honor.
Now, with the opening of the Russian archives, this authoritative biography presents a full account of Sutiagin’s life and career. Beyond these official records, the authors draw from the reminiscences of Sutiagin's comrades and his wife's personal diary to present a nuanced and vividly detailed portrait of one of Russia’s greatest fighter pilots.
