Re: IL-2 Shturmovik "red 28"

I was hoping to just give you a URL where you could read up on it ,but no such luck.
it was either at airwarfareforum (now defunct) or the old part of the VVS modeling forum.(we've lost so much)

1) YES !


2)I don't think so. it was photographed by LII or NII (state testing institute or Flight testing institute) and I don't think they would have done that near the front.
3) NO ! all NS-37 armed machines were manufactured at Zavod 30 (Khodinka) and had 'straight' wooden wings.
I prefer to refer to these as regular as they were far more common than the 'arrow' wings.
