Default Re: Soviet OOB11 - 2020

Yep....it's why I never bothered to add them to the OOB until now.

Quote:
The Kolesnikov-Tsybin KC-20 was the biggest, but least numerous of the Soviet military gliders of World War II and was a high-wing, wooden construction glider, with a double tailfin.*
*
Like Antonov A-7 and Gribovski G-11, they were mainly used for supplying Soviet partisans with provisions, weapons, equipment and trained men and were towed mainly at night by DB-3 bombers.*
*
68 were built in 1942-1943.*

I am surprised they were burnt. Nothing says " here we are" like a bunch of burning gliders
