http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4811.jpg (http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4811.jpg). An I-153 oversprayed with some green stripes over the original livery during the winter 1941/42? The star on the tail suggests that the photo was taken after the war's outbreak, but I am surprised that the light livery was preserved during the summer and fall in wartime. http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4784.htm (http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4784.htm) A Yak-7b repainted with the new livery of 1943, but still with old style markings.

very nice photos. Still not browsed through all of them, but this one attracted me http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4708.jpg (http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4708.jpg) Interesting paint (AMT-12?) around victory marks behind the canopy and dark (red?), white outlined board number. Seems to be the same plane as this one http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4707.jpg (http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4707.jpg) and http://www.photo-war.com/ru/archives/items4711.htm (http://www.photo-war.com/ru/archives/items4711.htm) Plus: red stars here http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4703.jpg (http://www.photo-war.com/photo/shop/4703.jpg) and here http://www.photo-war.com/ru/archives/items4705.htm (http://www.photo-war.com/ru/archives/items4705.htm) were white or silver outlined? Compare outline color with board no. 39. 66misos Title: Re: Photo album of Gen Sokolov from AIF Post by: Massimo Tessitori on September 17, 2013, 05:26:32 PM The bort number of the plane looks 12. It's clearly a Yak-9, but which version?
