You guys aren't ganging up on me are you?!

Wurger, it looks Soviet but the wheel spats have thrown me. It looks like a Grigorovich I-Z with the ARK recoilless cannons.

Close?

Bingo.And what I have said.You are the best Greame.It was Grigorovich I-Z plane.
Could I ask you a question? Do you really know all shapes of all planes? How big HD do you have in you head?

There another pic of the plane.Believe in the description below the pic, Stalin was in the cockpit.
Next time I will find something unknown.

Certainly!

No! I think it was John W.R. Taylor who estimated that by 1978 approximately 34,000 different aircraft (multiple versions excluded!) had been built.

What does HD mean?

You have a great collection of Soviet/Russian photos! Like I said, I have never seen images of the I-Z with wheel spats. Thanks for posting them.

Please do. That's the fun of the thread.

Wurger · 12-11-2007, 03:39 PM

Yes Wingnuts you are right.

But there is next pic for Greame.How about now?

Graeme · 12-12-2007, 02:09 AM

The Mitsubishi Army Type 93-1 Heavy Bomber (Ki-1-I)

Wurger · 12-12-2007, 09:34 AM

I've known you wouldn't disappointed me at all.Yea it is Mitsubishi Ki1-1.

And now?

Graeme · 12-12-2007, 02:24 PM

Lavochkin La-250

...getting back to your Japanese theme, what's this one?

v2 · 12-12-2007, 02:42 PM

Kawasaki Ki- 5

Wurger · 12-12-2007, 03:35 PM

Unfortunately V2 was too quick.Yes it is Kawasaki Ki-5.This one in your drawings is from 1933.In my from 1937.

Wurger · 12-12-2007, 03:38 PM

And yes the plane in above posted pic is Lavochkin La-250
There another pic of it in flight.

Wow an inline on a japanese fighter... The mostly went with radials in WWII service craft. Except for the Ki-61 Hien (based on the He 100) with the DB-601 copy.

Now what's wrong with these first 2 pictures and not with the last:

Krabat42 · 12-13-2007, 02:19 AM

Pic 1: No wing guns on the Vampire

Pic 2: Looks o.k. for me

Pic 3: Fritz-X Missiles on the Vampire? Bought clandestinely from some german "Überläufer"?

kool kitty89 · 12-13-2007, 01:35 PM

The third pic has the correct nose-cannons.

If you look closely on the 2nd one you'll see the wing-cannons firing. Or are those just tips of 4 bombs/rockets poking-out, that would make more sense. Especially since it would just be the box art that's wrong.
