Rare Photograph from 1944, Nazi Germany. Good thing we stopped them before these got off the ground ...

Isn’t that a Soviet plane? You may have your genocidal regimes confused. ;-)

That is a photo-shopped version of a real Russian airplane, the Kalinin K-7:

The real thing was fascinating, but it didn’t have any naval guns like your picture shows... :)

That’s the version from the Indiana Jones movies.

PS- That aircraft’s creator was executed by Stalin as an “Enemy of the State” in 1938.

Pretty cool, but it looks more like 1934 seeing there is a biplane in the background.
