Were the Russian aircraft that really rough in fit and finish? They look like someone went to town on the seams with a stick and a tub of Bondo.

These are terrible mock ups. They look lame like the whole series. If you like to see some real planes you better have a look at movies filmed during WWII.

It's probably a good story and I plan on watching it, but that is some low budget stuff right there!  :bolt:

9th Battalion was "meh", would have been better if it wasn't a fictional version of the actual battle.

Have you seen "The Beast" about the tank crew? I think it was made in 88, Stephen Baldwin was in it. I wasn't really a fan of 9th Battalion.

Nice video

Love to see MiG-3 it was one of the best early Russian interceptors (with its own limitations of course) and played key role in Moscow defense in early days

Yeah, I saw The Beast a long time ago in the theaters and enjoyed it.  Far better than 9th Battalion.
