Back to Berlin. Recycled IL-2 is preparing for a visit to Germany

For the first time in the last half century, the legendary attack aircraft of the Great Patriotic War Il-2 will appear in the sky of Germany. News.

The reconstructed car at the Berlin air show will be accompanied by the latest composite biplane TVS-2DTS. These planes will represent Russia at the air show, where, in particular, joint flights with historical airplanes of former allies and former adversaries.

“As part of the military-patriotic project“ The Winged Memory of Victory ”was restored and brought to airworthiness front-line attack aircraft Il-2. The machine with the 1872452 serial number in 2012 was raised from the bottom of Lake Krivoe in the Murmansk region. The first flight of the rare IL-2 took place in April 2017. The public presentation of the restored attack aircraft took place at the MAKS-2017 aerospace show, ”the publication reminds.

Aerospace salon ILA Berlin 2018 will be held this summer.

The newspaper notes that IL-2 does not have its own navigation devices, therefore, the TVS-2DTS biplane, created by Russian designers to replace the An-2, will accompany it to the exhibition and back.

The Il-2 armored attack aircraft were assembled at our aviation plants No. 1 and No. 18 in Kuibyshev and at the aircraft factory No. 30 in Moscow. We collected 74% of the “flying tanks” - 26 units. The monument to the IL-888 attack aircraft was installed here, as one of the symbols of the city, on the 2th anniversary of the Victory in 30 on the central highway of the city - Moskovsky Highway.

I apologize, but the first Ilyush series was released in Voronezh, now VASO, Pridacha airfield, if I am not mistaken. And then there were the rest: Kuibyshev-Samara, Moscow, etc.

You are not mistaken.
In my commentary, I was not talking about the first batches of IL-2 produced by the aircraft factory No. 18 of the city of Voronezh, but about the main production of this aircraft in my hometown. As I said, almost 3/4 of these aircraft were released by two Kuybyshev aircraft plants. Kuibyshev, in the release of IL-2, is not the "rest" - he is rightfully the main one.

[fighter angel]

But the first one was Voronezh! And it was from Voronezh to Samara that the IL-2 production was evacuated / transferred, the personnel of the Voronezh plant set up work for you, in Samara, on Il-2. The famous Shankman, to whom Stalin sent the "legendary telegram" with extreme warning, is the director of the Voronezh aircraft plant. And as for the fact that the bulk of the IL-2 was released in Kuibyshev, I don’t argue here, I pay tribute to your wonderful fellow countrymen-aircraft builders!

[Andrey K]

Quote: fighter angel

... But the first all the same was Voronezh! ...

I didn’t even argue with you that the first was Voronezh. It was he who started to produce, and then after the evacuation, the same aircraft factory No. 18 (even the number remained the same) was built almost in a bare field, in 35 days (!) - from October to December 1941. Built by the villagers from the surrounding villages, the townspeople. It was also produced at Aviation Plant No. 1 (the former Dux factory evacuated from Moscow), which, in addition, simultaneously released all 3 units of MiG-178 high-altitude fighters.
In addition to the two voiced aircraft plants, the following plants were exported to our city: No. 122 from Smolensk, No. 35 (branch of factory No. 89), No. 1 from Kaunas, No. 453 from Tallinn, No. 463 from Riga, No. 464 from Kiev, No. 483 OAP from Dnepropetrovsk.
Imagine the concentration of power.
Spirit captures from the willpower of our ancestors. Honor and respect.

Barely digging back in 2016

Are you talking about this plane?
In 1991, the History Museum of the Yakovlev Design Bureau signed a contract with the American museum company Hannel for a period of four years. According to this document, the Yak-3 went to the USA, to the California Museum in Santa Monica, a suburb of Los Angeles. However, even after this period, the plane did not return to Russia.

This fact caused the legitimate concern of the person who covered the Yak-3 with glory - Lieutenant General Eremin: “With pain in my soul I am addressing you on the issue of concern to me and I hope that the Central Air Force Museum will be able to solve the problem of returning an aircraft from the USA to Russia "Yak-3" <...> We must not allow the front-line relic, a symbol of our Great Victory, to become an item of trade, "General Eremin wrote in October 2000, addressing the head of the museum, Colonel Alexander GONCHAROV, indicated in the letter. The main stages of the long journey of the Yak-3 aircraft with serial number 1712 are as follows. On May 29, 1944, a brand new fighter, bought out by Golovaty for 100 thousand rubles, was solemnly transferred to Lieutenant Colonel Eremin, who flew to Saratov. It was on this machine that the famous pilot ended the war, having met Victory in Prague. And already at the beginning of August 1945, Boris Eremin's Yak-3 landed at the military airfield in Izmailovo for subsequent participation in the Victory Parade. However, due to climatic conditions, the air part of the 1945 parade was canceled.

[your1970]

yes, about him ...
and there are inaccuracies - either 12, or 13 YAK-3 (new remodels !!!) flew away, for sale to collectors, and with them, as an example of the great-grandfather’s plane, the plane (it was issued a temporary export for 2 years and it was supposed to return ). The planes were sold, and this one somehow got in a private museum in Santa Monica.
Now under restoration at Zadorozhniy (it seems, according to info 2016) ...

[Anti-Corr.]

Quote: your1970

yes, about him ...

The car is legendary!
I don’t have any info about remodels, but they wrote about yours that they specially repainted it and changed the number for export. The inscription is “Boris Yeryomin from Feropont Golovaty”. In fairness, I must say that the first presented by Golovaty was the Yak-1, he is in the Saratov Museum.

[Hiller]

so the French had a whole regiment "Normandy-Neman" on the Yak-3 and until the end of the 50s fighting .. now they also have in the museum

Nevertheless, this An-2 aircraft, made at a new technological level ...

An all-composite aircraft, which is an analogue of the Kukuruznik, An-2, was created at SibNIA named after Chaplygin. The new car will be presented for the first time at MAKS-2017, said the head of the Institute's experimental design bureau Vyacheslav Pisarev.

The working name of the new aircraft is TVS-2DTS. It surpasses the An-2 in its characteristics due to the hard wing. In the traditional An-2, the wing is a metal frame covered with a canvas that begins to tear at a speed of over 180-200 kilometers per hour.

TVS-2-DTS is capable of speeds up to 300 kilometers per hour. In its wing, you can place additional fuel tanks, which increases the flight range up to 2 thousand kilometers. The aircraft will take about 2,5 tons of cargo. The passenger version is designed for 11 people.

An-2, on a new level is an airplane in which all the structural elements of the An-2 are preserved, but made of new materials. There is no An-2 left here nothing.

[svp67]

Quote: Avis-bis

There is nothing left of the An-2.

Here the AN-2 remained CONCEPT, in fact the aircraft went through global modernization. It was not created "from scratch", it is a deep modernization, which developers do not hide. The name is different, since "An" is a patented name assigned to Ukraine

[Avis-bis]

Quote: svp67

Quote: Avis-bis

Here, from the An-2 there was a CONCEPT

Figs ce "logic". Then the An-2 is a one-on-one Storch.
If by “concept” you mean the “general layout” (a biplane with a tail wheel), then half of the aircraft industry can be written to each other’s heirs.

in fact, the aircraft went through global modernization

This is a completely new aircraft, not a "globally modernized" one.

It was not created "from scratch"

It was. Brand new units just hung on the old An-2, as on the LL, so that they had something to take off. Gradually, all the old units were replaced by completely new ones and the An-2-based LL turned into a new aircraft. This is a new aircraft, not a modernization of the old.

it's a deep upgrade

That's bullshit.

developers do not hide

Marketers can bleat anything. TVS-2 is a brand new aircraft.

Again:

An-2, made at a new technological level

This would be so if instead of steel braces there were composite ones, instead of percale - synthetic fabric or lightweight non-bearing plastic. Internal braces would also be preserved. Instead of shoe chamber brakes - modern disc.
In TVS-2, all units are different - a non-parting caisson wing, for example.

"An-2, made at a new technological level", this is a stretch, An-3 or An-2-100. There, the fabric is modern, and the engine is more advanced, and the fuselage is changed (to An-3), and the AREO is updated.

Quote: Avis-bis

TVS-2 is a brand new aircraft.

I won’t. But this is not a modernization / modification of the An-2, who was here called the "corn-maker". It’s just “standing on the shoulders of the predecessors.” So, for example, from the Yak-40 Yak-42D was obtained, and from the "Wright Cyclone" - M-82. But TVS-2, in general, differs fundamentally from the An-2, even the KSS has a different wing, not to mention aerodynamics (the An-2 would simply be impossible to accelerate to such speeds without destroying the aircraft). If this is considered only a modernization / modification, then I no longer have censored words.
Here Li-2 and TS-62 / -82 are modifications of the "Dakota", this is "yes", despite all the differences.
Tu-22 is not a topic at all. In terms of absolutely. You still mention about the IL-18th here ...

[fighter angel]

He, this TVS-2DTS, would still have to install our domestic TVD engine. In fact, the "Amer" is installed ...

[svp67]

As with the restored IL-2 ... there, too, it’s not native, but an American similar in characteristics ...

[dauria]

"Black Death" and "Corncob"

"Black death" is the name that our writers came up with later. The German name is Fleischer (Butcher) and Cementobomber. It is a pity that the most massive plane of that war, the soldier plane was left with only one.

[your1970]

God be with you !!! quite a lot of IL-2 stands in the country, both as monuments and in museums ..
Flying, yes, little 3 pieces, in my opinion, it was in 2005.

At one time, I, as a doctor, often came to a veteran of the Great Patriotic War, an engineer-mechanic for the U-2, Il-2 and Il-10 planes, Semenikhin. This is the brother of the writer Semenikhin, who wrote a lot on the aviation topic. My patient was an interesting interlocutor who by heart continued to remember all the gaps in the engine adjustments and its operating modes. So he also told how in the years 49-52, “silts” were simply crushed by tractors and raked into ravines. But the "dumb-headed" Americans are still keeping hundreds of "airmen", "thunderbolts" and others on conservation.

Dispatcher: - Aeroflot 554. Occupy the corridor 8 reduction circle 600 meters!
Aeroflot554: - I understand you! Decreasing! 600!
Dispatcher: -Aeroflot 554! 4 strip is free! Landing permission!
Aeroflot 554: - Got it! 4 lane! Landing allowed! Chassis, headlights released! I sit down!
.... misses the strip and gains height again.
Dispatcher: - Aeroflot 554! There is a problem!? Have you never been to Berlin before?
Aeroflot 554: - It was, b $ me! In 1945, but then I didn’t sit down .... !!!!

[dauria]

But seriously, here's a video look ...

But this is a variant of the KSS (wing with an arrow). One of the shortcomings of the IL-2 was the rear alignment. This increased sweep, shifting focus back. I remember for some reason. Once I was surprised that Kuibyshevsky Il on a pedestal does not quite look like pictures, so it became interesting. But this is not clear - this wing went towards the end of the 43rd year.

They are simply richer. They have the means to do so. They ended WWII with the rich, and we WWII the poor. And today, in comparison with them, we are beggars.
One thing is amazing - our, at least Soviet, at least now Russian combat aircraft are the most beautiful in the world. Look at IL-2 - handsome !!!

Honored Aircraft! Pride of aviation .....

[Fayter2017]

The aircraft is ambiguous with dubious effectiveness at the beginning of the war, on the one hand, there were big losses in the single-seat version, almost no one survived from the beginning of the war. In the double version and proper fighter cover, casualties on the flight departed to a minimum.
In the second half of the war, when they were armed with barrels and cumulative bombs, their effectiveness against tanks increased sharply, and the German infantry became terribly afraid of white phosphorus, which was watered from the bottom by the "black death".
