Title: Il-2 photo Post by: sinang aribowo on September 02, 2013, 06:29:06 PM Hi all,
found this picture from Il-2 Battle of Stalingrad game developer page in facebook (https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/q87/s720x720/1010266_515166321894564_733323068_n.jpg) They said "100% original scan from Soviet archives" Hope they found more and published there... the bigger size: https://www.dropbox.com/s/uns8sf4ubwadz1a/il-2_archive.jpg regards, sinang Title: Re: Il-2 photo Post by: learstang on September 02, 2013, 08:27:00 PM Very nice, Sinang! Excellent photograph, especially in closeup. It's an early straight-winged two-seater, with wooden wings. Who knows what other wonders the Russians have in their Defence Ministry Central Archives. Interestingly, this Il-2 has the ShVAK 20mm cannons in the VYa-23-type fairings. This was done sometimes when there was a shortage of the VYa-23 23mm cannons.
Regards, Jason Title: Re: Il-2 photo Post by: Massimo Tessitori on September 02, 2013, 09:22:38 PM Hi Sinang, thank you for sharing this scan, it's really clean.
