Il-4 no 11
The drawing of DB-3f (later Il-4) "yellow 11" in the LEMB board apparently also refers to the "Bobrujsk-bomber" (which most probably was "black-11" - also depicted in this Board).
However, the caption of "yellow 11" is mistaken - it is hardly plausible that a naval aircraft would have landed at Bobrujsk! The navy air forces did also not possess DB-3f bombers at this time - this version was delivered to DA in the first place. The naval AF used the older DB-3 type, and got DB-3f in quantity only from 1942.
