55 years ago, the first Russian-American war began - in 1950, in the skies of Korea, Soviet pilots first fought with American pilots. The symbols of that war were the Soviet MiG-15 and the American F-86 Saber - the best fighters of their time, very similar in appearance and approximately equal in their combat capabilities, so the outcome of the battle was decided only by the skill of the pilots. And the “Stalinist falcons” emerged victorious from this battle. We bring to your attention the best book of memoirs to date about the air war in Korea (1950-1953), the author of which personally shot down 20 American aircraft, becoming the second most successful ace of the Korean War and earning the Gold Star of the Hero of the Soviet Union.
