Talk:PZL TS-11 Iskra

Political decision

Can you provide a citation or source for this statement? The Iskra competed as the standard jet trainer for the Warsaw Pact, but due to a political decision, the Czechoslovakian Aero L-29 Delfin was chosen. --84.16.32.115 19:22, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Here it is, from http://www.airwar.ru/enc/other/yak30.html

Примерно через месяц после начала сравнительных испытаний произошло событие вроде бы прямого отношения к полетам в Монино не имевшее: в Москву прилетел с визитом президент ЧССР Антонин Новотный. Прошла еще неделя и наши соперники - чехи - повеселели: они загадочно улыбались и давали понять, что решение состоялось. Позже мы узнали, что именно на этой встрече было решено специализировать авиационную промышленность Чехословакии на создании и серийном производстве УТС для стран Варшавского Договора. Поэтому Н.С.Хрущев принял "политическое решение": самолет строить чехословацкий.

This translates to

About a month after the start of a comparative tests CSSR president Antonin Novotny visited N.Khrushchev. "In the last week of trials we understood in czechs behaviour that political decision has been made to build Warsaw pact unified training aircraft in Czechoslovakia, thus boosting it aircraft industry" - remembers one of trial participants from USSR
