ICM U-2/Po-2, WWII Soviet Multi-Purpose Aircraft

Description

One of the most numerous and famous aircraft in aviation history was the Polikarpov U-2. It was designed as a basic training aircraft. The maiden flight was in June 1927. Since the early 1930s, the U-2 became the real “flying deck” for thousands of Soviet pilots. During WWII, U-2 biplanes were successfully used, in particular, as liaison and ambulance aircraft. In 1944, after N.N. Polikarpov’s death, the plane was renamed to Po-2.
