5.0 out of 5 stars The Mighty SU-27, 5 Jan 2001
By A Customer
If you want to know anything about Soviet or Russian military aviation, look up no other than Yefim Gordon. His knowledge in this area is second to none and his publications are highly praised around the world. I own several books from Yefim Gordon and they are all of very high quality. My comments on this book is similar to those I gave to "MiG-29 Fulcrum" in this site.

This book simply has everything you want to know about the SU-27 Flanker. It is even more advanced and versatile than the already outstanding fighter MiG-29. The organisation and presentation of this book is like a bibliography on SU-27 with detailed description on how it was born, its development over the years, the variants and the background information. The section on the variants of SU-27 is most interesting as this aircraft is capable of performing various military duties. Apart from the wealth of content, the pictures are very rare and show a lot of details of the aircraft. The colour-plates are brilliantly presented and the line-drawings are very precise and informative. I have read several good books on SU-27 (by Jon Lake and others) but this one is the best yet.
