About this book

MiG Menace Over Korea: Nikolai Sutiagin, Top Ace Soviet of the Korean War by Igor Seidov. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781848840386.

Nikolai Vasilevich Sutiagin, the top-scoring Soviet air ace of the Korean War, flew his MiG-15 in lethal dogfights against American Sabres and Australian Meteors. He is credited with at 22 kills. Yet the full story of his extraordinary achievements has never been told. Only now, with the opening of Russian archives, can an authoritative account of his wartime exploits be written. The authors use official records, the reminiscences of Sutiagins comrades and his wifes diary to reconstruct in vivid detail the career of one of the great fighter pilots.
