Re: acft ID
It looks to me like a Heinkel He 111 bomber.

I think it is a He 111. Why do you think it is a soviet plane?

Re: acft ID
Yes, it makes sense. BTW, the sharp lines in camo on the wings were very popular on earlier Heinkels. It can be an early 'B' or so. Cheers,

Re: acft ID
Thanks Gabor and yes fully agreed, also since I am not an expert
on the HE, do you know based on what technical or performance issues
the Luftwaffe Ruestungsamt elected after the Spanish civil war despite
the battle proven B & E series to opt for the uglier and full glass
cockpit version as standard equipement ?
