Myasishchev M-4 and 3M: The First Soviet Strategic Jet Bomber

Книга Myasishchev M-4 and 3M: The First Soviet Strategic Jet Bomber Myasishchev M-4 and 3M: The First Soviet Strategic Jet Bomber Книги Вооружение Автор: Y.Gordon Год издания: 2003 Формат: pdf Издат.:Midland Страниц: 130 Размер: 70.91 ISBN: 1857801520 Язык: Английский0 (голосов: 0) Оценка:Red Star vol.11This is the story of the Soviet Union's first intercontinental jet bomber, which was to have become a carrier of nuclear missiles and the Soviet answer to the Boeing B-52. Much to the surprise of many, the little-known Myasishchev bureau was chosen to do the job; it had been disbanded a few years earlier and reinstated solely to create such a bomber. Known to the West as the Bison, the new bomber employed many innovative features (including a bicycle landing gear) and was created within the short period of just one year; Western military observers were stunned when the aircraft was formally unveiled at the 1953 May Day parade. The M-4 and the much-improved 3M remained in service for 40 years until retired and scrapped in compliance with the START treaty. The Bison also served as the basis for the VM-T Atlant specialized cargo aircraft designed to piggy-back the Buran space shuttle and components of the Energiya launch rocket. Also described in this book are the many projected derivatives of the M-4 designed in the 1950s, including longrange airliners.
