Strange Acft Markings ID Request
Would appreciate any help to identify the strange rudder markings of this IL-2
shot down by flack somewhere in Ukraine. Is the first time when I see such markings instead the Red Star and presume are the markings of a squadron dispatched from one of Soviet Republics in Far East. Note the front part of the fuselage far right of the tail section Last edited by researcher111; 27th January 2014 at 22:23. |

The second aircraft I can't identify for sure though is a VVS aircraft
possibly an IL-2 as well. Last edited by researcher111; 27th January 2014 at 22:23. |

Re: Strange Acft Markings ID Request
As stated above, just the number 21.
Second image is an IL-2, no markings visible. Last edited by Revi16; 17th January 2019 at 02:14. |

Re: Strange Acft Markings ID Request
There is very clearly a red star on the tail of the aircraft with "21". There is not enough contrast in the photo of the second aircraft to say there is NOT a red star there as well.

Yes indeed Bill,Chris many thanks ...
Does the solid line under 21 stands for a leader ? |
