(Synopsis needed)
Tupolev TB-3
First, acting ennemy bombers. Roundels are swatiska, but flipped from the Finnish one. Civil German aircraft never used it underwing. So any resemblance is purely coincidental.
Now flying to the left (Westward) and under the Red Star for the counter-offensive.
Tupolev TB-1
Polikarpov I-5
Polikarpov R-5
Tupolev I-4
Polikarpov I-3
Polikarpov U-2
An agressor wearing another insignia.
Seen after 26 minutes. This time, an aircraft from the protective forces.
And a last time at 41 minutes spraying a smoke curtain.
Polikarpov I-16
Heinkel HD 37
Design by Heinkel in 1928 but used only by the Soviet between 1931 and 1934 as I-7.
In 1938, for the movie, the type was decommissioned since long and so could acted as a ground victory record by Soviet bombers.
Unidentified Aircraft
Unidentified Model (Soviet victory).
Fokker D.XXI (model)
Soviet bombers crushing ennemy planes at their nest.
These lines of parked aircraft, only seen on the ground, are closely those of the Fokker D. XXI. Finland ordered seven airframes in 1937 (delivered in November) and built it under license in 1938.
