Download or read book Tupolev Aircraft Since 1922 written by Bill Gunston and published by Brassey's. This book was released on 1995 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the break-up of the USSR, the development of Soviet aviation was kept secret, and it is only in recent years that authors have been able to gain access to so much previously unpublished material. Bill Gunston has taken full advantage of the new openness and this, along with his connections at Tupolev, has resulted in a history of Tupolev aircraft, from the ANT-1 to the Tu-2000.
