Volume no.3 of the Profile & Scale series details the Lavochkin La-5 family of fighters as never seen before. One hundred La-5 examples are faithfully documented in full-colour profile. Moreover, the work contains many pages of original, never previously published 1:48 scale line drawings of the entire La-5 family. These line drawings are the culmination of nearly 25 years' dedicated work on the La-5, and should present the most complete, accurate and illuminating scale work regarding the aircraft at the present time. The book presents many production, development and detail facts about the La-5 family, some never before illustrated. A guide is included to explain the curious Gor'ki Type naming system, as well as diagrams and text detailing Gor'ki camouflage. The scale drawings and profiles are complimented by more than 45 photographs, some never before published. It is fervently hoped that at long last many hitherto confused or inaccurate details of the La-5 family of fighters will be clarified and rectified. Many of the colour profiles represent examples which will be familiar to students of the La-5, albeit completed to the utmost standard of accuracy. However, several profiles will doubtless be new even to experienced readers, and it is hoped these will delight both the casual reader and the serious student, equally.
