Re: Luftwaffe claim 15.1.42 Demyansk

Gentlemen

Can we please drop the -2 in the Tupolev design?
The aircraft was Tupolev SB, the digit 2 refers to the engines used, so it is either SB or SB-2M 100, SB-2M 103 and so on, but never SB-2 since it indicates there was a previous type designated SB-1 which of course there was not.

Cheers
Stig
