Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This second volume of Air Battles Over the Baltic 1941 continues Mikhail Timin's deeply researched examination of the Soviet Air Forces in the Baltic region during the tense months immediately preceding Operation Barbarossa. Drawing extensively upon recently declassified Soviet and German arc…hival material, the book reconstructs in extraordinary detail the desperate attempt by the Red Army Air Force to modernise, expand, and prepare for war before the German invasion of 22 June 1941.Far from presenting a confident and fully prepared air arm, Timin reveals an organisation trapped in a state of near chaotic transformation. Existing regiments were stripped of experienced personnel to create new formations; thousands of poorly trained young pilots flooded operational units; obsolete aircraft remained in frontline service; and the hurried introduction of modern types such as the MiG-1, MiG-3, Ar-2 and Il-2 generated as many problems as solutions. Throughout the Baltic Special Military District, Soviet aviation struggled with defective engines, unreliable armament, inadequate infrastructure, unfinished airfields, and a catastrophic shortage of trained crews and technicians.The book provides a uniquely granular account of this crisis. Timin traces the reorganisation of fighter, bomber and reconnaissance units; the expansion of training programmes; the construction of new airfields and concrete runways; and the relentless series of accidents, mechanical failures, and operational shortcomings that plagued Soviet aviation in the first half of 1941. Particularly revealing is the detailed treatment of the MiG-3 fighter programme, whose technical unreliability and difficult handling characteristics severely disrupted combat training in some of the Soviet Union's most important frontline fighter regiments.Extensively illustrated throughout with more than 90 rare black and white photographs, specially commissioned colour aircraft profiles, maps, and biographical studies of Soviet commanders and pilots, this volume offers one of the most detailed English language studies yet published on the condition of the Red Army Air Force on the eve of the German invasion.Combining operational history, technical analysis, archival research, and vivid human detail, Air Battles Over the Baltic 1941 Volume 2 is an essential contribution to understanding why Soviet air power entered the summer of 1941 in such a dangerously fragile condition -- and why the Luftwaffe achieved such devastating success in the opening days of the war.This revised and expanded edition features enhanced colour profile captions, an updated text and new cartography covering the dispositions of the Red Army Air Force. It also includes an expanded series bibliography, further strengthening the volume's value as both a reference work and a study of early Eastern Front operations.
