China's involvement in the Korean War in late October 1950 inevitably drew Soviet pilots into the war, with a total of 52 Soviet pilots scoring five or more victories there. The history of these covert actions has been a long-buried secret, and \u003cem\u003eSoviet MiG-15 Aces of the Korean War\u003c\/em\u003e is the first English publication to detail the only instance when the Cold War became 'hot'.
