Description Extended Information
 
DeAgostini DARA14 Soviet Bereznyak-Isayev Bi-1 Rocket-Powered Aircraft (1:87 Scale) "By powerful artillery fire, air strikes, and a wave of attacking tanks, we're supposed to swiftly crush the enemy."
- Marshal Georgi K. Zhukov

Soviet research and development of rocket-powered aircraft began with Sergey Korolev's GIRD-6 project in 1932. His interest in stratospheric flight was also shared by Marshal Mikhail Tukhachevsky who supported this early work. After a long series of unmanned tests of vehicles, Korolev's RP-318-1 rocket plane flew on Feb 28th, 1940. That Spring, the Zhukovsky Institute in Moscow (TsAGI) hosted a conference for aircraft chief designers on the subject of ramjet and rocket propulsion. On July 12th, the Council of People's Commissioners (SNK) called for the development of high-speed stratospheric aircraft.

Pictured here is a 1:87 scale replica of a Soviet Bereznyak-Isayev Bi-1 rocket-powered aircraft. Now in stock!
