Description

A History of the Design Bureau and its Aircraft Yefim Gordon & Vladimir Rigmant The

origins of the design bureau that was to bear his name can be traced back to the

appointment of Andrey Nikolayevich Tupolev as head of the TsAGI's Aviation

Department in 1918. Over the years, nearly 300 projects have evolved within the

OKB. Nearly 90 reached the prototype construction stage, with more than 40 types

put into series production.In the 1930s, the TB-1 (ANT-4) and TB-3 (ANT-6) bombers,


the latter being the world's first heavy strategic bomber, paved the way for the long

line of large multi-engined aircraft both civil and military for which the OKB is justly

famed. Wartime production of the SB and Tu-2 plus the remarkable 'reverse

engineering' of the Boeing B-29 that resulted in the Tu-4 led on to the jet Tu-16 and

prop Tu-95 bombers. These, in turn were adapted for civil purposes as the Tu-104

and Tu-114 airliners. The supersonic Tu-22 and Tu-22M bombers and the Tu-144

airliner, a move into pilotless aircraft and a host of imaginative but unbuilt projects

complete a fascinating work.
