Download or read book Soviet Military Power written by William J. Koenig and published by Salamander Books. This book was released on 1989 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most significant strategic development in the second half of the twentieth century has been the emergence of the Soviet Union as a superpower. This dominant position is firmly founded on military strength, and the Soviet Union's relentless expansionist policies would be impossible without the support of strongly manned and well equipped armed forces. More than for any other nation, the USSR's political position, in Europe and throughout the world, depends on the might of the Soviet war machine. Even in internal affairs the generals and admirals have massive influence on the development of Soviet policy. - Jacket flap.
Download or read book Red Air written by Sanu Kainikara and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2007-10 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Russian Air Force carries the mantle of the erstwhile 'Red Air Force' of the Soviet Union and has a long and illustrious history backed by grand traditions and customs. The Russian Air Force is still coming to grips with its changed circumstances after the collapse of the Soviet Union and is perhaps in the best shape of the three armed forces to be able to lend credence to the Russian Federation's claim to international influence and power projection capabilities. Doctrine is the reflection of a nation's character, and air power doctrine is influenced by the strategic culture of a nation. Nowhere else is this more apparent than in the case of the Russian Air Force. The Red Air Force has been directly influenced by the political upheavals in the Soviet Union and now Russia, but has displayed exemplary resilience in continuing to provide adequate support for government policies. The impact of political ideology on the development of doctine and air power has not been greater in any other air force around the world. This book is an extension of a doctoral thesis produced in 2005 and is essential reading for anyone trying to come to grips with the intricate relationship that exists between national security imperatives, political ideology and the development of military doctrine."--Back cover

Download or read book The Collapse of the Soviet Military written by William E. Odom and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this text, a United States Army officer and scholar traces the rise and fall of the Soviet military, arguing that it had a far greater impact on Soviet politics and economic development than was perceived in the West. The author asserts that Gorbachev saw that shrinking the military and the military-industrial sector of the economy was essential for fully implementing perestroika and that his efforts to do this led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Odom enhances his account with interviews with key factors in the Soviet Union before, during and after the collapse. He describes the condition of the Soviet military during the mid-1980s and explains how it became what it was - its organizational structures, manpower policies, and military-industrial arrangements. He then moves to the events that led to its destruction, taking us to the most secret circles of Soviet policy making, as well as describing the public debates, factional struggles in the new parliament, and street combat as army units tried to repress the political forces unleashed by glasnost.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is not to assert that there are limits to Soviet power but, through an examination of selected aspects of Soviet foreign and domestic policy, to understand what limits there are and to assess their significance and severity. The authors have assumed that the vast size of the Soviets' nuclear arsenal and considerable energy reserves, and that their vigorous and communicative new leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, their record of forceful interventions in Eastern Europe, Afghanistan, and Africa, and other indicators of ability to exert influence and control in world affairs were recognizable to most Americans.
