Belyayev DB - LK The DB - LK ( " Dahl ' niy Bombardirovshchik - LK " – long - range bomber – flying wing ) was a bomber aircraft designed and built in the USSR in 1939 . Development . Viktor Nikolayevich Belyayev had an illustrious early career with TsAGI , AVIAVnito , Aeroflot , OMOS , AGOS , KOSOS and the Tupolev OKB . He also designed and built several gliders from 1920 , including flying wing designs , and in 1934 he designed a transport aircraft with twin tail - booms each accommodating ten passengers . Belalyev continued the twin boom theme with the DB - LK , which had two short fuselages either side of a very long chord wing centre section , with the outer wing sections swept forward 5 deg 42 min , tapering at 7 : 1 out to raked back tips . A large fin and rudder on a slim central boom , carried a small tailplane with very large elevators . The airframe was of light alloy stressed skin construction with five spar wings covered with sheet aluminium alloy . Each fuselage pod carried a single M - 88 engine in a long chord cowling , driving a three - bladed VISh - 23D propeller , as well as a pilot / navigator cockpit and radio operator / gunner station in each of the extensively gazed tail - cones . The outer wings had slats , ailerons and 45deg ZAPP flaps , the raked tips also had small ailerons . The retractable undercarriage consisted of single main legs in the fuselage pods aft of the engines and a tail - wheel in the base of the fin . Before flight trials began , the test pilot , M . A . Nyukhtikov , carried out many fast taxis to assess the handling of the unconventional DB - LK , one of which ended in an undercarriage collapse . Flight trials eventually got under way early in 1940 revealing an excellent performance , but with a high sensitivity to centre of gravity changes . Production was not authorised .

On Protracted War On Protracted War ( ) is a work comprising a series of speeches by Mao Zedong given from May 26 to June 3 , 1938 , at the Yenan Association for the Study of the War of Resistance Against Japan . In it , he calls for a protracted people ' s war as a means for small revolutionary groups to fight the power of the state . The book calls for small assaults on Japanese supply lines instead of large confrontations on the battlefield . The book was highly criticised by the Nationalist Party - it considered the book , along with Mao ' s theory , an excuse for avoiding fighting against Japan . The Communist Party justified that the book did not deny the effectiveness of the big battles carried out by the Nationalists , it just provided an alternative means of resistance before the Chinese army became powerful . Once the Chinese army became powerful enough , the Communist Party explained , the guerrilla warfare aspect of the strategy should be deemphasized , and conventional forces should take over the primary prosecution of the war .
