damn

[Krippz]

Petlyakov Ant-42?

 

Nope I believe that's just another designation for Pe-8

[Fahhh]

Bolkhovitinov DB-A ? ;)

[nscode]

.. or DB-2A

[IvanK]

TB7 M40.

 

Both the Pe8 and the ANT42 are of the same genus as well.

[topol-m]

It`s still looking more like Ant-42 to me

[Namenlos Ein]

Bolkhovitinov DB-A ? ;)

A DB-A bomber that incurred a broken landing gear strut during flight testing, photographed in [05/21] 1936.

Topol-M this is your thread you aren't going anywhere ;)

 

Hehe that`s true mate but it really takes a lot of time for searching mainly for answering the questions and for keeping track of the thread. I might still come to answer a question or two but it will be pretty occasionally. There are a lot of people here that can keep the thread alive :)

 

HAL Dhruv Helicopter Cockpit.

 

Correct.

[Sov13t]

First time in this thread, so not sure how difficult the pictures can be...

 

So will start with this for now:

 

[X-man]

Wasn't easy to find, but after searching for MiG-15 and MiG-17 derivates (them wings+tires look very familiar), I found this: http://www.aviastar.org/air/russia/mig-sn.php

 

MiG-17SN

Edited August 24, 2010 by X-man

[Sov13t]

Correct! MiG-17 SN, was an attempt to create a CAS version of the MiG, it actually has moving cannons in the nose, so that it could engage targets while flying level.

 

X-Man your turn :)

[X-man]

Ladies and Gentlemen! I give you.......................a tough one ;)

 

 

However, I have no doubt that you can solve it :D

[Udat]
