The book is soft bound, with a saddle stitched spine binding; actual size 11¾in x 8¼in (297 x 210 mm); it has 36 pages, 133 b&w and 29 colour photos and 3 pages of colour camouflage profiles (18 machines depicted). The book describes the type history and technical aspects of the aeroplane, completed with a production overview. Camouflage and armament & equipment descriptions, detailed 1/72 scale plans (on the fold-out sheet), exterior and interior drawings, various sketches and a pull-out poster are also included.

The second volume deals with the MiG-19 radar-equipped variants. One of these models, the ‘PM’, was particularly important to the air forces of the former Warsaw Pact countries, as it introduced the first generation of radar-homing anti-aircraft missiles to their inventories. The MiG-19 all-weather fighters were also “cloned” in China as J-6A, J-6B and J-6IV, thus enabling their air force to be acquainted with these highly sophisticated pieces of equipment.
