Comment
This coin celebrates the 100th anniversary of the birth of Amet-Khan Sultan, a national hero of the Crimean Tatar people. One of the most famous ace pilots during World War II, as well as a test pilot, Sultan was twice awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. He made 603 attack sorties, personally shooting down 30 enemy planes (one of which he rammed) and 19 together with his squadron. By 1946, he had tested over 100 types of planes.Interesting fact

This is a unique feature, as most coins tend to feature images of historical figures, landmarks, or cultural symbols. The inclusion of a military aircraft on the coin highlights Ukraine's rich aviation history and its contributions to the field of aeronautics.
