Lavochkin La-5 In Profile & Scale - Paperback

by Erik Pilawskii (Author)

Volume no.3 of the Profile & Scale series details the Lavochkin La-5 family of fighters as never seen before. One hundred La-5 examples are faithfully documented in full-colour profile. Moreover, the work contains many pages of original, never previously published 1:48 scale line drawings of the entire La-5 family. These line drawings are the culmination of nearly 25 years' dedicated work on the La-5, and should present the most complete, accurate and illuminating scale work regarding the aircraft at the present time. The book presents many production, development and detail facts about the La-5 family, some never before illustrated. A guide is included to explain the curious Gor'ki ""Type"" naming system, as well as diagrams and text detailing Gor'ki camouflage.
