1944 Army "SU-2" - World War II USSR Russian attack bomber aeroplane
Original aeroplane recognition poster (1944)
63x47cm
A particularly unusual style of aeroplane identification poster, owing to the very arty images. Most such posters rely on very plain silhouettes; this series - and we have many in this series - takes a much more arty approach to the task with shading and an interesting angle view.
The Sukhoi SU-2, or Сухой СY-2, was a Soviet reconnaissance and light bomber aircraft used in the early stages of World War II. It was the first airplane designed by Pavel Sukhoi. The basic design received an engine and armament upgrade (SU-4) and was modified for the ground-attack role (ShB).
910 SU-2s had been built by the time production was discontinued in 1942, but the aircraft soon became obsolete. In combat, the SU-2 ground attack aircraft squadrons suffered heavy losses against the Germans, with some 222 aircraft destroyed. From 1942 onwards, the SU-2 was withdrawn from the frontline and replaced by the Ilyushin lL-2, Petlyakov PU-2, and Tupolev TU-2 bombers. The SU-2 was relegated to a training and reconnaissance role. However, due to a critical shortage of aircraft in early World War II, some SU-2s were used as emergency fighters.
