Wrecked Soviet Aircraft - Help Needed.
I have had these 3 loose photos showing destroyed Soviet aircraft for some time, and was hoping someone might be able to identify the type of these 3 Soviet aircraft please?
Any help will be very well received indeed. Regards Richard. No 1. (I hope there is enough to go on) Last edited by Richard Mills; 23rd September 2017 at 21:30. |

Re: Wrecked Soviet Aircraft - Help Needed.
The first one could also be an I-153, although the upper wing cannot be seen.

I tended to agree with Denes
inside lower side there are a tube which looked to me as a blast tube, it is in right place for the blast tube of the lower 7,62 mm ShKAS mg of I-153. Juha |

Many thanks to you all for your respective input. With regards to No. 1, the wing seems to of been destroyed in the fire, so the upper wing area really is not visible at all. Regards Richard. |

Re: Wrecked Soviet Aircraft - Help Needed.
1. I-153 'Chaika' with M-25 engine;
2. MiG-3 with AM-35a engine; 3. SB with two M-100 engines (SB-2 does not exist - not correct translation "СБ с 2*М-100" or "СБ с 2*М-103"). And it's not Ar-2 (engine hood is another) |
