Interesting article on development of Russian aircraft design during GPW; click the "Translate" bar again when you scroll down and find untranslated text:
http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Ffsg.net.ru%2Findex.php%3Foption%3Dcom_content%26view%3Darticle%26id%3D67%3Afanera-vs-dural%26catid%3D39%3Abook-wow%26Itemid%3D69

This is from a really good thread on Scalemodels.ru on the subject of the Polikarpov I-185 - lots of detail photos and drawings from newly-discovered technical manuals being posted by "mal16":

As always, thank you for the link, John!  It figures; the I-185 is notable mainly for killing two of the Soviet Union's best test pilots, yet it has a better technical manual than the slightly more significant IL-2.
