Chance upon the armament of the Li-2 transport planes of 9.AP GVF (as at 1. May.43 but probably in December it was the same): 1 Li-2: 1 BS (12.7mm MG), 3 ShKAS (7.62mm) 1 Li-2: 1 BS, 2 DA-1 (7.62mm) 1 Li-2: 1 BS, 2 ShKAS (7.62mm) Regards, Andrey |

Thanks a lot, Andrey!
So it seems that the Li-2 had a dorsal turret. Juha |

Li-2 had got a drosal turret very early (1941/42), it was easy to install it on them.

Yes, I knew that, that's why I asked the question 9 years ago. The question was, had the Li-2 hit by Lipfert the turret or not. Soviets modified some of their Bostons by installing their UTK-1 dorsal turret on them. A Li-2 with the dorsal turret is easier to misidentify as a Boston in the heat of combat than a Li-2 without it. Juha |

I think that it was L-2 with turret (I think so), it was late period of war, and transport plane was armed (or had to be armed).
