内容説明
The I-15, I-16 and I-153 fighters were the world's first mass-produced fighters. A total of 17,000 Polikarpov fighters had been manufactured by the time their series production was terminated in 1941. Aircraft of the first series successfully operated in Spain with the Republicans during the civil war (1936-39), in Chinese hands against the Japanese (1937-38), and then with the Soviet Red Air Force again against the Japanese in Mongolia during the Nomonhan Incident (1939). Russian-flown fighter also saw action against the Finns in 1939-40 during the Winter War.
By the time the Wehrmacht launched its surprise attack on the USSR on 22 June 1941, more than 20 Soviet pilots had made ace in Polikarpov fighters during these various conflicts. Still more aces were created in the first months of the German invasion, although losses suffered by the Soviet Air Force's five borderline military district units equipped with some 4000 I-15bis, I-153s, and I-16s were astronomical. Despite being thoroughly outclassed by the Bf 109E/F, the Polikarpov fighters constituted the backbone of Soviet fighter aviation for the first six month's of the war in the east. Many future aces started their combat careers in Polikarpov fighters, and newly-winged pilots continued to train on the I-15 UTI-4 two-seater until 1944. I-153s and I-16s actively participated in campaigns throughout 1942 and, in certain sectors of the frontline, into 1943. Amazingly, a handful of Polikarpov fighters remained in service through to 1945.
This is an important title that helps tell the story of fighter evolution 'between the wars', as the Polikarpov family of aircraft effectively bridged the gap between the biplane fighters of WW1 and the monoplane fighters of WW2. They also saw combat in all of the 'smaller' conflicts of the 1930s leading up to WW2. This book also features a significant chunk of Spanish Civil War material, as well as operations against the Japanese in the late 1930s - both areas are very popular with aviation historians and hobbyists alike.

本書は1930年代の欧州の紛争と対日戦には常連だったポリカルポフのI-15系（I-15bisとI-153も含む）とI-16のソ連パイロットを中心にスペイン内戦、中国への対日義勇軍、ノモンハン空戦、フィンランドの冬戦争、大祖国戦争での空戦記とエースの活躍を例によって96頁（10頁がカラー図）に圧縮したものです。
スペイン内戦のポリカルポフ戦闘機で戦ったスペイン人に関しては別冊Spanish Republican Aces (Aircraft of the Aces)になる記述があります(P.S.スペイン内戦時のフランス人と米人のパイロット各３人言及していますが、米人の２人は何らかの不始末で軍を追いだされ、残りの一人アルバート 「エイジャックス」 ボームラー（Albert ’Ajax’ Baumler）は戦闘機パイロットとして不適と判定された為、スペインに来て撃墜4.5機不確実2機を記録し、その後中国のAVGと後身の第23戦闘グループでも戦果をあげるのは太平洋戦線のP‐40ウォーホークエース (オスプレイ・ミリタリー・シリーズ―世界の戦闘機エース)を参照ください；追記2012年1月30日)。
全般に空戦毎の参加両陣営の戦果と損失を検証するという作業を殆ど怠っている内容で、一部紛争総括で相手側の損失との比較をすることでお茶を濁しています。
対日義勇軍で捕獲した96式艦戦をソ連に空輸した話や、RS-82無誘導ロケット弾による敵機撃墜など興味深い話もありますが、何せ検証を欠く内容ですので信憑性にまで疑いがかかってきます。
一応ポリカルポフ戦闘機の活動状況を知ることはできるのですが、分冊にしてもう少し精度の高い内容にして頂きたかった。
実質☆2.5というのが私の評価です。

Red Eagles in Action!
2010/9/8
形式:ペーパーバック
Mikhail Maslov's POLIKARPOV I-15, I-16 AND I-153 ACES devotes itself to the trio of highly maneuverable fighters designed by Nikolay Polikarpov. From the mid-1930s to late 1941, the I-15, I-153 and I-16 formed the bulwark of Russian Air Force units. Committed to action worldwide, the stubby, sturdy Polikarpov fighters proved to be deadly opponents. Although later eclipsed by LaGG, MiG and Yak products, the Polikarpov family of fighters compiled a first-rate combat record, a record described in this fine 'Osprey Aircraft of the Aces' volume, #95 in the series.
After detailing the production history of the three fighters, Maslov relates the combat record of Polikarpov fighters over Spain, China, the Khalkhin Gol, Finland and Mother Russia itself. In all, some 16,000+ I-15, I-153 and I-16 models were produced. When Hitler invaded Russia in June 1941, I-16s made up 40% of the VVS fighter inventory. I-15bis and I-153 variants were still on strength and Luftwaffe pilots soon learned to fear Polikarpov's fighters. Though outclassed by Bf 109s, VVS pilots were fearless in their attacks on Luftwaffe formations, Russian pilots often launching ramming - 'taran' - attacks in their determination to down the hated 'Fascists.'
POLIKARPOV I-15, I-16 and I-153 ACES is a nicely-done, well-illustrated guide to Polikarpov aces wherever they flew and whatever their nationality. Maslov makes excellent use of first-person reminiscences. Interestingly enough, he devotes several pages to taran attacks and the VVS use of air-to-air rockets, subjects dear to my heart. Given the frantic nature of air combat whether over Spain, China or Moscow, overclaiming was rampant, Maslov making an effort to compare claims against actual losses where known. Whatever the true score of those Polikarpov aces, they proved to be dangerous opponents.
The book is illustrated with 90 photographs, some new to the reviewer, and ten pages of nicely-done color profiles by Andrey Yurgenson. And there's dramatic cover art by Mark Styling, natch!
Air combat buffs should enjoy this overview of Polikarpov fighters in action. Although many of the pilots' names are tongue-twisters, the book is an easy read and quite informative. Recommended.

Best Osprey title yet!
2011/12/20
形式:ペーパーバック
I own a number of Osprey's series "Aircraft of the Aces" and I must say, that this title is the best yet! I have found that a number of the Aircraft of the aces series are somewhat tedious, and boring, consisting of day to day operations of a particular unit or individual. IMHO, uniteresting and slow reading. Not so with Polikarpov I-15, I-16 and I-153 Aces.
Maslov's title is a refreshing change from the usual format in that he goes into developmental detail of the Polikarpov aircraft reveals technical as well as tactical advantages and disadvantages under the different operational areas that the aircraft performed in. All the theatres of war are included in this title; Spain, China, Khalkin Gol, Finland WWII. Exploits of individual pilots are also included. I found it fast paced and very enjoyable.
The color plates are of extremely good quality and will no doubt be helpful for the modeller and the wealth of photographs will be of interest to the aviation buff.
I hope this is a trend in Osprey's Aces series. If so, Ill be buying more!

Aircraft par excellence

This book from Osprey publishing narrates the story of aces who flew Nikolai Polikarpov designed I-15, I-16, I-153 class fighters. Generally Soviets give an abbreviated name of designers for their fighter aviation: La for Lavochkin; Pe for Petliakov;Su for Sukhoi; IL for Ilyushin; Tu for Tupolev etc. Given such a practice it would have been appropriate to name the plane NP or PN.
The book is neatly divided into five chapters.In the first chapter author ecamines technical aspects of the aircraft. Remaining chapters feature its operational history. However some important details are missing. Firstly, I series planes opened a new phase in world aviation history. What were they? It represented a transition from a biplane to truly remarkable advanced monoplane fighter having an enclosed cockpit with a retractable undercarriage. These were also first mass produced aircraft in history nearly 17,000 were built from a period between 1935 to 1941.
How does the planes stack up with the machines of Western airforces? My answer is unequivocal: definitely superior because of following attributes. Among all pre war fighters I- 16 was unique because it provided armour protection for the pilot. Starting from 1937 I-16 was produced with machine guns and cannnons. Even the legendary British fighters Hurricane, Spitfire and for that matter American P 51 Mustangs did not have cannons.Later versions underneath the wings were fitted with rocket launching pads that fired RS-82 rockets.
Though slower than Luftwaffe fighters I- series planes had excellent vertical and horizontal manoeuvrability. I- 153 climbed 5 miles in a minute less than Me - 109. If the German fighter took 24 seconds to take a turn the former could execute this manoeuvre in 12 seconds. Further I-16 had a coolant system which was air cooled. On other hand German fighters had liquid coolant which was vulnerable to leaks if bullet hits any part of the cooling system. Engine soon overheated and stopped working.
Yes, the plane took a terrible beating when Germany invaded Soviet Union. Losses cannot be attributed to lack of dog fighting experience by Soviet pilots as suggested by a Soviet intelligence officer who defected to West. Facts show Soviet pilots had extensive experience in aerial combat prelude to outbreak of World War II. For they fought in Spain,China, Mongolia,Finland. After Red airforce regained its pose planes continued to inflict losses on Luftwaffe. I class fighters continued flying till phased out more advanced fighters which became operational in later stages of the conflict.
Like all Osprey book this one also features charts, diagrams ,tables. There are good photos of planes flying, grounded in airfields and Soviet aces seen for the first time. Unfortunately book carries no bibliography. A nice read for aviation aficionados.
