Comrades,

I don't know if someone already posted the link, but here it is:

to all Red Navy Air Force fans:

an extremelly interesting set of photos of attack of the Regiment on German Flack vessel Niobe in Kotka port, Finland. The Russians mistook Niobe for a Finnish armoured vessel Väinämöinen and attacked it in full strength. Stunning pictures of the first wave missing the vessel and then the second wave destroying the target.
