Warbird Information Exchange

Here are some planes I saw while in Moscow 2 years ago, sorry about the photo quality, it was just before I went to digital so these are photos of photos. Next month I'm going back to get better photos which I will post. If I remember correctly they were a couple WWII planes that someone said were reproductions so I didn't take photos of them, I will correct that this time.
Maybe one of you can ID these, thanks

These are at the Central Museum of the Armed Forces

WOW. Very cool. Wish I could help you but I know very little about Russian Aircraft. I'd be interested in knowing the names of all the planes that are there though!

Is that snow or the fall-out from their latest nuclear winter

I've seen too many airplanes destroyed by the term "Static Restoration."

Great pics. I am fascinated by jets with glass house noses. I don't know why.

Is it that I am bias, or are russian aircraft the ugliest freakin things you have ever seen in your life?

Greaet photos!

hah! I always thought they were sort of pretty. Like a woman with an "interesting nose" you can't get out of your mind.

Well, there's an old saying. "If it's ugly, it's British (spitfire excluded). If it's weird, it's French. And if it's ugly AND weird, it's Russian."

i always liked the russian helicopters. cool pics.

I don't know what it is, but those airplanes in snow seems so appropriate.

Great pictures by the way.

Cheers,
