I am Russian, and.... I know that IL-4 is DB-3 ("Dal'nij Bombardirovschik" = "Long range Bomber")
But it seemd to me very strange a lots of claims over Lang Range Bomber Aviation... May be thay attacked german airfields, or... I dunno, may be I./ZG 1 "Wespe" was on patrolling missions...
I will ask my friend-historians from Russia to clear this, & may be I will find the name of regiments of that bombers...
