As well as intercontinental ballistic
missiles and high-tech warfare the
‘Cold War’ brought about some of
the most advanced and much-loved
aircraft since World War Two.
Types that spring to mind include the Avro
Vulcan, the Boeing B-47 Stratojet, English
Electric Lightning, the MiG-25 Foxbat and the
awesome Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird. All of
these and many more are featured in this 100-
page special publication from the team behind
FlyPast magazine.

FEATURES INCLUDE:

GAZING INTO THE ABYSS
Vic Flintham outlines the Cuban Missile
Crisis, when the USSR and the USA
waited to see who would blink fi rst.

HONING THE ELITE
Peter Green and Andrew Thomas
describe the vital role of the RAF’s
Central Fighter Establishment.

BREAKTHROUGH
With the incredible MiG-25 the Soviets
had an interceptor that challenged


  • and rattled – the West. Nikolay
    Yakubovich describes its development.


REFLEX ACTION
Strategic Air Command’s early
deterrence relied on the ability to
send jet bombers to forward bases at
short notice. Bob Archer explains the
concept.
