      This service was called - VNOS, aerial surveillance, notification and communications. The following tasks were assigned to the airborne aerospace defense divisions: detection of an air enemy, warning of troops (objects)
      guidance of its aviation to air and ground targets. The technique is simple - we sat and listened in the "air-hazardous" direction. Like acoustics on boats.

    If earlier a collective farmer could afford to "buy" a Yak-3, now perhaps only Abramovich will pull a Su-34. Equipment has risen in price, has risen in price ... winked (PS: Thank you for the excellent photos, I would like to see models of airplanes and bombs in the signatures.)

    In general, picture No. 5 raises a lot of questions, that there is no doubt that this is not an aircraft factory, all three cars are of different modifications. Moreover, I doubt that the third one is I-16. Most likely these are some kind of aircraft workshops. There are a lot of doubts that 42g, t. K. the first two cars are silver, and even the front parts of the blades are painted with silver, they did so up to 40 g. The paint has no visible wear and signs of restoration was probably operated in a region with a mild climate (only around ratchet, it’s not entirely new). Second moment -shades in the workshop; in42gRostov, Moscow already more mbili, so that at least they should have been removed according to the instructions on preparing the enterprise for air raid (I don’t remember the exact length of the document). Apparently the second car is the UTI-4 machine gun tunnels above the engine. traces of firing from on-board weapons. Most likely a pre-war photo taken somewhere in the south of the country. PS: this is to the dialogue between Vladimirts and Tlauikol, just the comments didn’t go there recourse

      By the way, Vladimir is also right drinks : the plant is nominally Rostov, but it was evacuated to Baku. Hence, there may be light bulbs and a light roof of the workshop. And repairs at the factories were also made - hence the motleyness of the machines. IMHO

        The plant itself was not involved in repairs, even the NKAP order existed on this subject (on mobilization and production plans), the maximum was an experienced workshop that could do something (as a rule they brought samples not accepted by military acceptance) but they were isolated into separate production facilities, with their own a plan for which they strictly asked. An exception is the plant in Kazan, it was obliged to carry out repairs of the Pe-8, which it built, as a rule, was combined with some modernization. In general, there were repair plants, often workshops (let’s name it doesn’t bother, in fact this is the same plant only by military personnel). The level of specialists was such that the design bureau often considered proposals for rationalization.

    The author lost sight of Mig-3, which is not surprising - this is one of the fastest interceptors with a huge flight ceiling, which took part in the Great Patriotic War, which defended the skies of Moscow and defended our Black Sea Fleet.

    Here's another interesting photo of the trophy thing. Compare the forms of our attack aircraft and the German - who stole our entire talent? It is not the Germans or the Japanese who should be leaders in design, but we.

      if the word "thing" meant the Ju-87, then it's not him (it seems more likely Fw -190)

        Trophy FW-190 were used with us.

        I. V. Kudishin Focke-Wulf fighter FW-190 publishing house Astrel Publishing House 2001

        On the topic, from page 124:
        The Soviet Army captured a large number of FW-190Ds at East German airfields. Some of the captured equipment was destroyed on the spot - the planes were simply crushed by tanks, and some were transferred to the USSR. After flying at the LII, the plane received a very high rating. Do not forget that the "long-nosed" was superior in speed and altitude even to the La-11 that appeared after the war, somewhat yielding to the latter only in power and accuracy of the salvo. There is unverified information that before 1948-1949. a certain number of "Dors" were in service with the naval aviation of the Baltic Fleet and in air defense units (in particular, in the Khabarovsk Territory) along with the "Spitfires" and "Kingcobras".

          What is DOR?
          Vicki says that the Germans nicknamed their "brainchild" with a "broken" tail: "Würger" - "Shrike" (small bird of prey). Also a literal translation of it. Würger: strangler, killer.

          Truly language has power, it sounds in our opinion like a magpie-thief.

            "Dora" is the verbal designation of the letter D in the name of the FW-190D aircraft.

    "Stuck" - this was the nickname Ju-87 had, we have a bast shoe, and this is FV-190. After the war, they were tested with us.

    The article plus is just for these photos!
    On photo # 8, plant # 21, where La-5, La-5f, La-5fn were produced (in any encyclopedia, under this photo they write La-5f on the conveyor of plant # 21), on photo # 61, there is again a retouched photo. when, but in a nutshell, in the oreginal in the foreground the IL-2 under the cockpit carries a direct lightning bolt with the inscription "AVENGER", on the keel number 25. For some reason, since 84, this photo has been presented in this form, I don't know the reason, the only thing I know from this board that it was part of the 16th VA. Anyone who has more detailed information can share it, I can for payment.

    Photo # 55 was either made in a mirror version or our major violated the rules for wearing orders: the "Red Star" was always worn on the RIGHT SIDE of the chest, and on his left side. All the more so in 1943!

      Many artists had armor from the draft, they had to raise morale in the army with their creativity. And high morale was more important than 10 additional fighters from the same artists. It was just that the people who led the country understood that art in war is no less important than weapons.
