Re: "22.06.41, combat actions of Soviet Bombers" - article of M.Timin

Mirek:

There were two different things:

-"Plans to Cover the Mobilization in case of German Agression". It contained air cover of mobilisation of troops, and attack of advancing enemy (german) army to stop or slow them before "war time army" (mobilisated) will arrive to border.

-There are no even a trace in each and every russian archives about any "plans of agression", which is highly speculated by "historians" like Rezun/Suvorov or M.Solonin and their adepts. You can create and argue ANY variant of "plans of agression" of USSR, but You cant provide plain proof - "plan" itself. In this case, You can call "Plan of Cover of Mobilisation" as You wish and speculate about it as You wish - but it will not change the fact that it was defensive plan. USSR in summer 1941 was VERY FAR not ready to any serious war, especially against 3rd Reich.
