The inventive titanium alloy comprises, expressed in mass %: aluminium
4.0-6.3; vanadium 4.5-5.9; molybdenum 4.5-5.9; chromium 2.0-3.6; ferrum
0.2-0.5; the rest being titanium. An equivalent molybdenum content is
determined as corresponding to Mo.sub.equiv.gtoreq.13.8. The inventive
method for heat treatment consists in heating to

during 2-5 hrs, air or water cooling and age-hardening at a temperature
ranging from 540.degree. C. to 600.degree. C. during 8-16 hrs. Said alloy
has a high volumetric deformability and is used for manufacturing massive
large-sized forged and pressed pieces having a high strength level,
satisfactory characteristics of plasticity and fracture toughness.
