Product Description

Most accounts of the conflict known in the West as the Border War barely mention the operations by the FAPA/DAA. A handful of published histories mention two MiG-21s claimed as shot down by Dassault Mirage F.1 interceptors of the South African Air Force in 1981 and 1982, and perhaps something of the activities of its MiG-23 interceptors during the battles of the 1987-1988 period.

The story told by Angolan and Cuban sources reveals an entirely different image of the air war over Angola in the 1980s: indeed, it reveals to what degree this con­flict was dictated by the availability or the lack of air power and shows that this issue dictated the way that the commanders of the Cuban contingents in Angola whether as advisors or as combat troops planned and conducted their operations.
