    For whatever that you need to know Ernst, just start a new thread about Russian fighters...

    Ernst, there is more interest in the Western fighters (American, British and German) than Soviet fighters on this site. However, if you search, you will find information on Soviet aircraft. I would try and use the Search feature to pull up posts about a particular Soviet plane. I echo Lucky13's sentiments - welcome to the forum. His suggestion is also a good one. If you start a thread about a specific plane or theme, for example "Which Were Better - Yak's or La's?" you will get responses, maybe more than you expected!

    One that could have been a contender but for engine problems. The I-185. Estimated top level speed @22,500' of 441mph. According to test pilots it had excellent handling.
