Issued to mark the 100th anniversary of the National Aerospace University in Kharkiv — formally named after Mykola Zhukovsky, the Russian-born physicist whose theoretical work on lift and aerodynamics underpinned early aircraft design across both Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union. The university traces its origins to 1930, making the centenary claim tied to an earlier precursor institution rather than the Kharkiv school itself.
