The devil wears the "Truth." Part of 9
Leaving no chance to the cursed "Marxist historians" and their like-minded people, harboring the Bolsheviks' aggressive plans from the people and the whole world, Viktor Suvorov once again puts himself in an unenviable position: "They tell me (who says, it’s not indicated): everything seems to be it’s correct in your Icebreaker, but you couldn’t find the supporting document. This statement of the question confuses me: who will be looking for? Maybe academician Anfilov? For 50 years of hard study of the initial period of the war, he did not bother to visit not only the archive, but even the museum, in the center of Moscow, where our floating Tanks T-37A and T-38 are on open areas accessible to children ”(p. 89).
Let me remind you that the very fact of the presence in the Soviet Union of amphibious tanks is regarded by the author of "Suicide" as irrefutable proof of the world-wide aggression being prepared by the "red". Although, I think, you already learned the Rezun's “axiom” about our armored “amphibians” extremely well: “... there is no place to swim in the defensive war” (p. 80). And suddenly it turns out that during the years of Soviet power, moreover, long before the “perestroika” that opened the way to our book stalls for the same “Icebreaker”, the iron (literally) “evidence” against aggressive Bolshevism was available for all to see!
And if Rezun argues that "Marxist propagandists" exposed us as "Vanka-fools", then he should pay attention to his propaganda. After all, it turns out that we, foolish ones, seeing those very floating tanks as museum exhibits, could not discern in them “small toothy predators” (p. 98), created exclusively for attack. And we didn’t even ask the question: “Where was this Comrade Stalin going to sail?” (P. 84). How can we not be surprised by their own "inferiority"!
Back to aviation. Viktor Suvorov drastically “narrows” the capabilities of the Luftwaffe bombing forces in the war with the USSR, relying on the fact that they did not include strategic vehicles: “The German bombers Do-17, Yu-88 and He-111 were created for a completely different job. Their task is to destroy small-sized, mostly moving targets in the area of military operations and in the enemy’s near rear. These bombers are designed for short-range flights with a small stock of bombs, for operations from small and medium altitudes ”(p. 89).
Well, by the “standards” of strategic bomber aviation, the listed aircraft actually flew for “short distances with a small stock of bombs” ... Especially in view of this “assessment” by the author, who clearly confused these machines with the Ju 87 dive bombers, widely known as “ Thing"…
The ability of Ju 88, the main bomber of the Luftwaffe, to effectively carry out attacks from diving at ground targets, including mobile ones, was combined with a carrying capacity well corresponding to the average bomber that this vehicle was. Junkers' normal bomb load was 2 000 kg. The range is 1790 km.
The Fellows in the He 111 class and Do 17 (used as a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft) were far less good at diving bombing, but Uncle Vitya will probably know better ...
They can blame me for saying that the author relies on the absence of long-range bombers from the Germans, and not strategic ones. This is not the same thing! I completely agree. But I will ask this reproach to redirect our “expert” who makes demands on long-range bombers as “strategists”: “To destroy industrial areas located deep in the rear, long-range bombers with a range of five thousand kilometers are needed and more ”(p. 90).
Thoroughly “cutting” their “black wings” to German bombers, in order not to fly very far and high above our Motherland, Victor Suvorov, a dozen pages later, scoffs at herself, saying that “before the war, practically the entire Red Army was outside the old state borders on the hostile territories of Bessarabia, Northern Bukovina, Western Ukraine, Western Belarus, the occupied Baltic states ”(p. 101). Why, then, the Germans need a strategic bomber aircraft, if the author made such a chic "alignment" for the "worthless" German air force? And for the same Romanian Air Force. And if such a "alignment" took place, how did it happen that the Wehrmacht, enlisting the help of the satellites of Germany, did not defeat the Red Army at the very beginning of the war? Moreover, Mr. Rezun, you do not deny the fact of the surprise of Hitler’s strike for our armed forces.
To those who see unfair attacks in my words, I quote one more fact from Suicide: “... by order of the Commissar for Defense Marshal Tymoshenko of the Soviet Union and Chief of the General Staff of Army General Zhukov tens of thousands of tons of tank spare parts, hundreds of thousands of tons of ammunition and the fuel was taken to the very borders. In the very first hours of the war, all of this came under fire or into the hands of the enemy. Soviet tanks were left without fuel, ammunition and spare parts ”(p. 84). Personally, I have no doubts: the Wehrmacht destroyed the “failed aggressor” in the person of the Red Army, and the “swastika” soared at the Kremlin! If you, Mr. Rezun, do not recognize this, then admit, please, that you hold your reader by the idiot!
