I need Russian sources (Aerodynamic and Flight Mechanics)

In summary, the individual is a mechanical engineering student who is studying aircraft design, specifically UAVs. They are looking for suggestions on Russian books on aerodynamics and aircraft design. One suggestion is N.F. Krasnov's two-volume set on aerodynamics, which covers topics such as shock wave theory, compressible flow, and aerodynamic interference. Another recommendation is Landau and Lifshitz's "Course of Theoretical Physics," with volume six focusing on fluid dynamics.

Hi guys. I need ur suggestion. Firstly, (I got to say that I'm new about this topic) I'm studying mechanical engineering and It's my first year. I've never learned about fluid mechanics or termodynamic or differantial equations before but I'm dealing with Aircrafts especially UAV. I've read Aircraft design (Daniel P. Raymer) and some other small sources and I've learned a lot. I deal to make model aircraft nowadays. It's okey.
Your suggestion is related with book. I'm looking some Russian Aerodynamic or aircraft design books. Tupolev, Ilyushin etc. Can you suggest a book for me? Thank you. (Just Russian)

Well, I'm not familiar with the engineering literature on fluid dynamics, but for a theoretical physicist the immediate association with "physics textbook" it's Landau and Lifshitz 10-volume "Course of Theoretical Physics", and the fluid dynamics book (vol. 6) is just marvelous (as are all volumes except vol. 4 on QED which is a bit outdated).
