The Russian hard-to translate term "Samolety Polya Boya" literally means: "Battlefield Aircraft".

It describes the complex and fascinating evolution of these machines.

The book includes descriptions of over 160 models, with a strong graphic set including detailed and exclusive previously unpublished drawings.
