and thanks for telling us there's a book about it. I'd love to read the inside story. I also remember reading about the use of tube in the MIG. The way the newspaper wrote the story the West was "surprised" that the Soviets were using such an "outdated" technology...but then later it was explained that the "old fashoned" radio tubes were resistant to EMP, whereas the US planes became expensive bricks when too close to a nuke detonation.Another book I loved reading was Grigori Medvedev's "The Truth about Chernobyl". I wonder which is worse: that some of those heros actually did understand that they were going to die a slow and terrible death because they stayed to put out the fires, or that they truely believed they had adequate protection and safeguards. Yep, those engineers are something aren't they? Tickling the Tail of The Dragon--"don't worry, we know what we're doing..." "oops".
thanks for that post, VK.
