Pyro, they actually have on on display at the War Eagles Museum which is in your neck of the woods (or at least somewhat close by in New Mexico). They might let you inside to take all the pictures you want.

Here's a link.

O God, O God, O God, let it be so....

This will be a cool plane(forward firing 23mm's of love).

Brady,

Most Tu-2s had forward firing 20mm cannon, not 23mm. I wouldn't count your chickens quite yet.

I cast my net upon the information highway and in one day I got these three. Hoping for more soon.

These are from the TU-2 the WEEKS Museum had in Florida.

Well. they were tripod pix. I downloaded them and put them on my ftp site:

Charon, thanks for the info. Although it's just across the Texas border, it's still 640 miles away from us. Perhaps I'll be able to make some arrangements remotely.

Westy, excellent stuff. Just what I'm looking for. Are there any more, particularly from the gun positions?

Someone to put some performance numbers on this commie bird?

Looks kind of a Soviet Mosquito

Only those three so far Pyro. But I'm still looking on the net. Also waiting for more replies to a query I'd sent out. I'm at work so I can try for the web to search for material but no access to books nor to any replies to my request for TU-2 shots I may have gotten since the ones above.

Will post later...

There were lots of Tu-2 types but my guess is this is what we get:
