This uniform was authorized in 1969 as part of the new uniform regulations.  It differed little from its 1958 era counterpart.  In fact, only the shoulder boards and size of the visor cap would change (the latter around 1980 when it became slightly larger). 

Generals were authorized to wear this uniform on both holiday/parade occasions as well as by officers who were not part of a formation on such days (such as working in an office or when going about the base while off duty).

The jacket is made in the usual 'wave blue' fabric that had become characteristic of the air force in the post-war era.  The gold embroidery found on the collar and cuffs is of very high quality.  The buttons feature the state seal of the USSR.  The air-technical patch on the left breast is simply a more ornate version of the excellent aviation engineer badge.

A high quality belt with gold embroidery and a unique general's buckle is worn around the waist.  On the buckle is the Soviet state seal with banners for each of the republics.  Its outer portion is adorned with a wreath.

The uniform's trousers are 'wave blue' in color and feature two thick stripes on either side of a thin light blue stripe running down each leg.  Black officer shoes complete the uniform.

Badges and ribbons were authorized for wear with the uniform, but on more formal occasions orders and medals were worn instead.
