Guess which 'plane this is LXXXV

​

 

Recycling of He-111 components?

 

Has a 'russian look.'
But no idea. GOOD POST!

 

you're saying that 'cause it's ugly?




j/k

 

Nope. I think some Great Patriotic War aircraft were nice looking. A good example is the MiG-3


LaGG-3, in my opinion, was pretty.

There is an ascetecism peculiar to Russians. Seems, at least in the 'old days' Russians had a different idea of what was meant by 'streamlined,' and it wasn't ugly, just, well, different that Britain [which also seems to have had a national view of what was 'streamlined' and what was not] or France or Italy [yet another with a different 'view'].

Oh, and, YEAH, the thing in the picture IS ugly.

 

Pe3?
A wild guess- to tired to do a search

 

Looks like Ił-4 but has V engines no star-engines (and bombardier windows has diffrent shape), maybe it is a Ił-6 prototype

 

Nope- the IL-6 prototype had different propellers (3-bladed) and longer engines (diesels), the fuselage was also different (almost the same as in DB-3).
These engines look more like DB-601 (or 605) or Japanese Ha-40 to me.

 

volkz! it's a piece of cake!
yermolayev, yer-2.

biles: good intuition.

 

Yes, Yer-2. One of the 1st VVS planes over Berlin August 11, 1941
A bit odd looking maybe, but nice IMO

 

better than db-3f/Ilyushin-4

 

cause it painted in early war russian camo
