EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print of the 47 Fitter (Sukhoi Su-7B) is part of a series of Graphics Training Aids used by the United States Army in 1977 to train their personnel to recognize friendly and hostile aircraft. This particular set, GTA 44-2-1, features aircraft from Canada, Italy, United Kingdom, United States, and the USSR.
The detailed image captures the sleek design and powerful presence of this Soviet-built fighter jet. With its distinctive silhouette and markings, it serves as an important tool for military training and education.
Dating back to the height of the Cold War era, this photograph offers a glimpse into a time when tensions between superpowers were high and aircraft recognition was crucial for national security. The importance of being able to quickly identify friend or foe in the sky cannot be understated.
As part of The Peter Butt Aviation Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, this historic print is not just a piece of art but also a valuable historical document. It showcases the evolution of flight technology and highlights the ongoing arms race that defined much of global politics during that period.
