      It doesn’t look that old. I think if the plane really had crushed during WW2 not much would have remained of it to this day.

    7. Very interesting. Does anyone know the location and type of aircraft?

      • La-5, Tu-2 or Il-4, based on the fact that it got 2-row 14-cylinder radial engine. Since there is at least a couple of them lying around, it’s most likely Tu-2 or Il-4, unless several La-5 were blown in place. Possibly late version of Pe-8, although not likely.

        …I think we can rule out Pratt & Whitney Double Wasp, based on the crankcase shape. Likewise, we can rule out BMW801. Most likely Tu-2, since the engine DOES look like ASh-82, and there are at least two.

      There is no crash site. There is only swamp gas.

      Is it smart to walk where a WWII plane wreck is smeared all over the ground? You would hope it was unarmed when it crashed…

      • onre says:

        Looks like the plane has burned pretty severely upon crash - just look at deformation on engine cylinders. That fire has most likely taken all ammo out already.

      It doesn’t look like WW2 plane.
      If it were that old the parts would’t be in such a good state.

    12. Cynical, I would go along with a DB-3/Il-4 since there are twin oleo struts. Tu-2s had single strut.

    13. It does not look like a WW2 crash. Steel in a swamp for almost 70 years would be a little more rusted. It’s also a little odd that some of the parts are leaning against young sapplings that are bent over like the wreckage appeared after the trees had started to grow. It looks more like a single engine modern plan to me.

      Also, I don’t think aluminum piston heads were very common on WW2 Russian radial engines, but I could be wrong.

    14. I stand corrected, it looks more like a modern 2 engine plane wreck.

      i agree with you john,definately not a tu-2.dont know about the other one u mentioned-maybe i not familiar with the model although im pretty sure its russian ’cause if you look at that radial,the gear and cylinder design is from ither ilyushin or yakovlev(not sure bout the model though)

    17. Actually that is not accurate.

      The Lisunov PS-84 was flying passengers before the war as a civilian plane. When the war broke out they were taken over by the military and renamed the Li-2

      The Ilyushin Il-12 was as a passenger plane with Areoflot and was powered by 2 ASh-82 radial piston engines

      The Ilyushin Il-14 was also flown as a passenger plane with Areoflot and was powered bt 2 ASh-82T-7 radial piston engines and they stopped flying in 2005.

      The Antonov An-2 was produced for 45 years until the 90’s(also the largest single engine bi-plane) is powered by an Ash-62 and is used as a crop duster as well as a passenger plane.

      The Antonov An-14 was also flown for Areoflot and was powered by 2 Ivchenko AI-14RF radial engines.

      There is probably about 10 more.

      • Lisunov - ASh-62, single row (with possible exceptions pointed out by John from Kansas)
        Il-12, Il-14 - I did have an impression it had single-row radials, but I was wrong. Landing gear looks wrong for Il-14, though.
        An-2 - ASh-62, single row. Incidentally, An-2 starred in The Golden Calf movie with Yurski - totally out of period
        An-14 - single row, 9 cylinder
        Of course there is also Tu-4, but that one has 18 cylinder engines

    18. AdriankK says:

      Lol @ whoever said the wreck was in a good state. It looks like any other water-bogged ww2 wreck. There are even similar ww2 era wrecks in Alaska only in a better shape.

    19. Fair ’nuff, but UT-2 was of fabric-plywood construction (and with a 5-cyl engine), Yak-7 was a prototype, Yak-11 didn’t fly until late 1945 and is not, technically, a “wartime” machine, Yak-6 had same M-11 engines as UT-2. I should have asked my question like this: “What wartime production Yakovlev was powered by a two-row radial engine?”

      where’s them fucking pilot gone?

      ZAFARAD IS NOT RUSSIAN! NO RUSSIAN IS AS STUPID AND RETARDED AS THAT THING! HE MUST BE ONE OF MISS INDIA’S MANY BS PROFILES!

      HE IS NOT RUSSIAN! HE IS LIAR RETARD!!!

      This is famous UFO crash site of Roswellski

    23. Kometya says:

      But still can’t tell whatever they crashed or were shot down right? Nor Insignias are recognizable, oh well! I reckon is not the usual scrap metal you would expect to find when going out for a walk, guess any part of the fuselage displaying an insignia that might have survived has already been taken by someone, I reckon I’d do the same.

      being a restore of WW2 aircraft I find these photo’s authentic.My ompany has recieved several wrecks from russia and these aircrat are now flying in aishows.Ithink many of the bloggers above need to do a great deal of reading asyour knowledge of Russian aviation is very out of dae and limited.The Rusian aircraft of today and the past are just as good, if not better that anything in the world at there time of manufacture.Biggest problem with westernworld, is there limited ability to regognise that other conties cn make things just as good as them, if not better.By the way I not Russian or American, but do know about avaition.Anyone from Russia know of any wreck sites for Shturmovik il2-3m in Russia,Ukraine,Moldova? please let me know

      no crases without dumbass morons, who even dont want to take look at photos and regonize chopper model[remains] on them.
