How to Fly an Il-2 Shturmovik (Official Training Film)

[John Kettler]

The Modern Ukraine strife is overwhelming the earlier strategic operation there, which was greatly assisted by the deadly and surprisingly not very survivable (crew and plane had combat life of seven sorties, per a man who flew them) "Flying Tank." Link has English subtitled Russian video, together with a separate full English transcript of everything said.
