About 137 thousand aircraft were received by the Soviet Air Force during the years of the Great Patriotic War - it was beyond the power of Nazi Germany and its allies to produce such a number of aircraft. In this book, Alexei Ivanovich Shakhurin, People's Commissar of the USSR aviation industry during the war years, recalls how workers, aviation designers, scientists, all those who created military aviation equipment under the most difficult conditions, worked. The third edition of the book is supplemented with memoirs by A.I. Shakhurin, which for various reasons were not included in previous editions.
