Exclusive Deal: 25% Off

The War in Ukraine series continues with two volumes dedicated to the crucial struggle for air superiority and missile dominance during the opening months of Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022. Drawing on Russian, Ukrainian, and Western sources, these studies analyse the doctrine, technology, and operations of both sides, while documenting the successes and failures that shaped the war in the skies.

Volume 6: The Air War, February–March 2022 traces the opening air campaign, examining why Russia’s Aerospace Forces (VKS) failed to achieve air supremacy, and how Ukraine’s Air Force and ground-based defences resisted against overwhelming odds. It includes historical context, doctrine, and the impact of early operations on the ground campaign.
Volume 7: Air and Missile Warfare, March–June 2022 explores the protracted contest for airspace and the parallel missile war waged across Ukraine, including the extensive use of rockets, ballistic missiles, and cruise missiles. It also details the campaign for Snake Island and the sinking of the Moskva, flagship of the Black Sea Fleet.
Illustrated throughout with colour photographs, specially commissioned maps, diagrams, and profile artwork, these volumes provide a definitive account of the air and missile dimension of Europe’s largest war since 1945.
