Soviet Aircraft Identification.
 

This random image of a Soviet machine came from a large collection of photographs formerly belonging to a Bordfunker with 7./KG 1.

What interests myself in this image is the 'Fire Extinguisher' sign, written in English as opposed to Russian, leading myself to believe it is a British or American produced machine (?).

My question is, is it possible at all to identify the aircraft type from this image at all?

Any help really will be very much appreciated indeed.

The English lettering does give it away.

From the same collection of loose photographs, can anyone please identify these Soviet machines also?

As always, your help is much appreciated.

Excellent! Thank you very much indeed for that.

I am glad you cleared that up as I did wonder if that might be the case but with no background knowledge on this, I am really happy that this has been mentioned as a possibility.

re : first image
the elliptical window definitely gives it away as an A-20 Boston.
evidence of a two-color camouflage scheme most likely means a Boston MK III
transferred to the Soviets under the Lend-Lease agreements.
