Re: Pe-2
Absolute nonsense. The usual sort of rubbish spouted by those of a political/racist bent to disparage one group or another. Similar comments were made about the Zero being a copy of a US type. There was an argument that the Bf.110 was in turn a copy of the French Potez 63 - does this make the Pe.2 a copy of the Potez? Hardly.
Which is not to deny that every aircraft-building nation relied to some extent on observing what was being done elsewhere, and adopting what might be thought useful.
