Since the end of the Cold War, numerous air shows and military flight displays have sprung up far beyond the Western sphere of influence. We live in a multipolar world where Russia, China, Asia, and many other countries are striving to establish themselves on the international air show stagewhether for military prestige or to promote their aircraft and helicopters for export. The growth of military markets in Asia, the Persian Gulf, and Eastern Europe offers Western nations numerous opportunities to showcase their latest aircraft on the other side of the world. These burgeoning air shows are thus forums where the entire aviation culture and tradition of the New World converge, and where even Russian or Chinese aircraft are unveiled that would have been unthinkable fifteen years ago. The author, a long-time specialist in exotic air shows, presents these aircraft from every continent in all their splendor.
