Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The latest title in the Aerofax imprint deals with the history and operations of the Soviet/Russian Tu-154 jet airliner, one of the most successful and long-lived jets produced by that country's aviation industry.The need for the state-of-the-art medium-haul jet airliner that would succeed both the Soviet's existing jet airliner, the twin-engined Tu-104, and to a certain extent the four engined turboprop Ilyushin II-18, led the design bureau headed by Andrey Nikolayevich Tupolev to start work on a three-turbofan engined aircraft which, in keeping with the company's established tradition, was designated the Tu-154. Sharing the rear-engine, 'T-tail' layout of the Boeing 727 and the Hawker Siddeley Trident, the prototype took to the air on 3rd October 1968.In the years that followed the Tu-154 became not only the principal medium-haul aircraft of the Soviet airline Aeroflot but also one of the Soviet Union's bestsellers on the commercial aircraft market. Built on a slightly smaller scale that the 727, though it was much larger that its British counterparts in airline service. It's uses have included VIP transportation, astronaut training and open skies monitoring flights. It is still a popular aircraft on holiday charter flights.This book traces the development and operational history of one of the most successful designs produced by the Tupolev bureau. It describes all known versions and variants and unrealised projects based on the aeroplane. A detailed production list, operator lists on a country-by-country basis and accident details are included. Part of the "Aerofax" series, this title deals with the history and operations of the Soviet/Russian Tu-154 jet airliner, one of the most successful and long-lived jets produced by that country's aviation industry.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 'Spy in the Sky' matters have long been a source of interest and fascination for aircraft enthusiasts, historians and modellers and none more so than the elusive and secretive Soviet types of the Cold War era. Yefim Gordon presents us here with a range of such types, presenting a collection of photographs, profiles and line drawings together with supplementary text detailing the history of each craft, encompassing the various developmental milestones, successes and pitfalls experienced along the way. The Soviet Union's two dedicated spyplane types, the Yakovlev Yak-25RV 'Mandrake' (the Soviet equivalent of the Lockheed U-2) and the MiG-25R 'Foxbat' are profiled, supplemented by details garnered from a host of original sources. Well-illustrated histories and structural analyses are set alongside detailed descriptions of the various plastic scale model kits that have been released, along with commentary concerning their accuracy and available modifications and decals. With an unparalleled level of visual information - paint schemes, models, line drawings and photographs - it is simply the best reference for any model-maker setting out to build a variant of this iconic craft.
