Red Wings Over The Yalu: China, The Soviet Union, And The Air War In Korea by military historian Xiaoming Zhang (Texas A&M International University) is an informed and informative survey and analysis of the military history and international politics of the Korean War. Focusing in particular on the Chinese point of view, Red Wings Over The Yalu is extensively detailed in its presentation and enhanced with black-and-white photographs of Chinese military aircraft and the men who flew them. An invaluable contribution to Korean War military history reference shelves and reading lists, Red Wings Over The Yalu is a seminal and highly recommended addition to any personal or academic Military History reference collection.

3.0 �toiles sur 5 Chinese (and Soviet) Organisation of Airpower 7 septembre 2010

Par C. J. Riches - Publi� sur Amazon.com

Format:Broch�

This is not a book about tactical air operations in Korea, so don't expect to find classical accounts of duels between the comabttants. What it does cover is the organistion of Chinese air forces and the role played by the Soviets (plus the hosts in Korea) to expedite the creation and preservation of the Chinee air force.

There is lots of material drawn from sources hitherto unavailable, and a coherent story of the development of the air force. It gives a good account of the discussions between Moscow and Beijing in how the response to UN air power in Korea was to be tackled, and the tensions between the needs of the ground forces, the limited air bases, and the need to improve the skills of the Chinese pilots before exposing them to the UN's skilled pilots.

There are some accounts of action, and some interesting discussion on how badly wrong the historically-accepted kill ratios likely are.

So, good if you want a history of the development of the Chinese air force in this period; to be avoided if you want a view from the other side of the hill in regard to the detailed action in the skies.

5.0 �toiles sur 5 Excellent Academic Work 12 janvier 2008

Par Alan Lockerby - Publi� sur Amazon.com

Format:Broch�

This book is a perfect example of a well written academic work. 'Red Wings' is thoroughly researched and makes good use of newly declassified Russian and Chinese sources. It challenges many widely held views of the air war over Korea, and provides the reader with previously unavailable information regarding the strategy, doctrine and tactics of the 'other side' at the time. Moreover, 'Red Wings' offers insight as to the lessons that the PLAAF took away from the Korean War, and how it affects that service today.

A fine addition to any scholar, Air Force member or aviation enthusiast's bookshelf.
