Hi,
of course I can't confirm that the parts are real, but I don't see the sense to make a fake of them.
I am surprised that the first photo seems brown on your monitor, I see it as green. Yes, the position on the top of the rudder would be compatible with AMT-1, but it just seems green.

Hi there,
I just discovered this thread and I am surprised that it got only so few responses. First: Can it be confirmed that these relics are indeed real and not just post-war fabrications? And then: Which one of these do you think shows AMT-4?
And: Could the very first one (captioned as U-2) actually be an example of that ever-elusive AMT-1? Sure looks like "dirty sand" or "coffee with milk" on my monitor. Okay, it has a slight greenish tint, but this could be due to the lighting conditions in the photo. Too bad we don't know when this piece was cut out...

Cheers,
Christian

ok thank you.

[Part 2]

Part 2 just dropped.

Enjoy!

I've got new data. 6 IAP is wrong, at least it passed away the I-15bis in 1941.
New attributes of the photos is 1945. Note the very strange 2 digit of 62 number.

thank you. What is OBUKAE for?

Yes, Yak-4, and with evidence of camouflage.

I see radiators behind props. A Yak-4?

Yes, both I15bis are of the same unit.
But 14 KORAE was armed with Il-2kr only.
So, I15bis could be of 6 IAP or 5 OBUKAE (stayed at the same airdrome, moreover, the I15bis likely transfeded from 6 IAP to 5 OBUKAE).

And what about the very similar plane I-15 bis n. 68? It is very similar to 62 but it is attributed to 14 KORAE (Korrektirovochnaya Aviaeskadrilya = artillery gunfire correction air squadron) at Uglovaya Central airbase, Vladivostok.
