Yermolayev Yer-2
« on: July 06, 2010, 11:59:36 PM »
Very very early war bomber, saw action alongside Pe-8's in a bombing raid against berlin, stopped production early in the war, then resumed in 1943, saw service in 6 "Long range" bomber squads about 360 to 370 made:



Crew: 4
Length: 16.42 m (53 ft 10½ in)
Wingspan: 23 m (75 ft 5½ in)
Height: 4.82 m (15 ft 10 in)
Wing area: 79 m² (850 ft²)
Empty weight: 10,455 kg (23,049 lb)
Gross weight: 18,580 kg (40,961 lb)
Powerplant: 2 × Charomskiy ACh-30B V12 diesel engines, 1,118 kW (1,500 hp) each each
Performance

Maximum speed: 420 km/h (261 mph)
Range: 5,500 km (3,418 miles)
Service ceiling: 7,200 m (23,620 ft)
Armament

1 x 12.7 mm UBT machine-gun in nose flexible mount.
1 x 12.7 mm UBT machine-gun in ventral flexible mount.
1 x 20 mm ShVAK cannon in a TUM-5 dorsal turret.
Up to 5,000  kg (11,023 lb) of bombs in the internal bomb-bay.

It may not be the best or fastest, but I have seen lots of people ask for Soviet + Japanese bombers, so why not consider everything :)

Looks like a tumor growing out of the fuselage.

All joking aside, I like it. Would be a good addition for the Russians.

I need help with my spelling. SOS! :cry

I would say that in a sound pack you could get a different sound but I would say that for the regular sound package you would only get to hear normal engine sounds.

Congrats on suggesting an aircraft I had never heard of nor seen images of before.  That happens very rarely.

Neat looking bird too.
