George Mellinger

Osprey Publishing, 2006

Soviet Falcons in Action!
The over 15,000 fighters supplied to Russia by America and Great Britain played a vital role in Russia's survival and ultimate triumph in WW II. That total encompassed Hurricanes, Spits, P-39s, P-40s and P-63s along with small numbers of P-47s and -51s. The exploits of the VVS aces who flew lend-lease fighters are recounted in George Mellinger's latest Osprey volume, #74 in their 'Aircraft of the ...

Steven Zaloga

Osprey Publishing, 2004

Excellent and informative book on an important Soviet AFV
Steven Zaloga is one of my favorite authors on tanks and AFVs. This volume does not disappoint. The T54/55 tank is one of the most numerous and successful Soviet tanks ever developed. Over 40,000 of these tanks are used all over the world. Zaloga does a great job of describing the development of the T54 and T55 tanks and the variant models. He also includes various sections which explain the ...

And Now You Know the Rest of the Story: Russian MiGs in the Korean War!
Back in September 2006, when I reviewed Warren Thompson's F-86 SABRE ACES OF THE 4TH FIGHTER WING, I commented that it would be great if Osprey had a "MiG-15 Aces of the Korean War" book in the works. Well, here 'tis...and not only is Leonid Krylov's book interesting but it's sure to be controversial as well. Russia committed many MiG-15 units to the Korean conflict. It's only recently that ...

Soviet Rifleman 1941-45 (Warrior)

1 review
Gordon Rottman

Osprey Publishing, 2007

Good Reference but lacks first-person perspective
Gordon L Rottman's Soviet Rifleman 1941-45, Osprey's Warrior No. 123, provides a good look into the nuts and bolts of the infantry of the Red Army in the Second World War. One of the aspects of this volume that I particularly liked was the author's frequent use of Russian terminology, which gave a more unique `national' feel to this volume than some of the others in this series. This is one of ...

Stalingrad 1942 (Campaign)

2 reviews
Peter Antill

Osprey Publishing, 2007

A good short general history
This book is a good general history of the Stalingrad campaign. Whilst more time could have been spent on the actual battle in the city itself the book still provides a good overview of the whole campaign that lead to the encirclement and destruction of the 6th Army. Given it is only 64 pages I think it is a good buy for the money.

This unique pictorial book brings to us in detail a largely unknown aircraft of World War II that greatly helped defeat Hitler and his invading armies. The Il-2 Shturmovik was the workhorse of the Soviet Airforce and raised havoc with the German and their allied Axis forces invading the USSR and occupying Eastern Europe.

Sevastopol 1942: Von Manstein's triumph (Campaign)

Robert Forczyk

Osprey Publishing, 2008

Well Written Operational Account of the Siege
The original plans for the Barbarossa Operation did not call for the seizure of the Crimean Peninsula. Things changed quickly when on July 13, six Soviet bombers based in the Crimea attacked the Romanian oil fields in Ploesti. Within a week, 11,000 tons of precious fuel went up in flames. Hitler and the German Army Staff soon viewed the Crimean Peninsula as an aircraft carrier aimed directly ...

Red SAM: The SA-2 Guideline Anti-Aircraft Missile (New Vanguard)

3 reviews
Steven Zaloga

Osprey Publishing, 2007

NIce little book
A good reference guide to the famous (or infamous) SAM that defined a generation. The book follows the development, the tactics and the effect of the weapon, its strong and weak points. Full of black and white photos, two pages of color illustration, it is worth the price.

Junkers Ju 87 Stukageschwader of the Russian Front (Combat Aircraft)

Osprey Publishing, 2008

This final volume of the Osprey trilogy on the infamous Luftwaffe dive-bomber charts its fortunes in the toughest theater of all: the Eastern Front. The fearsome reputation that the Stuka had enjoyed in the opening months of the war was shattered over the English Channel in the summer of 1940 but was restored in the invasion of the Soviet Union. Against a demoralized enemy, the Ju 87 scored a string of spectacular successes, destroying infantry, ...
