Lend-Lease Oddities

Thanks for the heads-up Pat. I took a look at the link you provided and read the review. All in all, I think I'll pass on that one. An awful lot of work to build an inaccurate model. Shame

Hi,

It looks like there is a company called AZ Models that does a 1/48 scale Vengenace.

Remember the two USAF pilots who in 1952, I believe, crossed the Yalu River and shot up a Soviet base covered with P-39's, P-63's, A-20's, and Mig's.

There is a table in this article of all aircraft  by type and quantity provided to the Soviet Union by Britain and the USA via lend lease.

as well as other tables listing other items. The trucks figure is most interesting as more were provided than the Soviets produced on their own.

No sir, I did not know that.

Don't forget the Russian use of P-63s and A-20s as well...

I was watching Wings of Russia last night and just learned that the U.S. gave Russia a small amount of B-25's. I knew about the P-39's and of course the P-40's, but not the B-25's.

There are a lot of interesting and little modeled aircraft out there. I've not heard of those you have mentioned though.
