Nute, help!

[Flying Beastie]

Quick, I'm doing a class project on Day of the Triffids, and I need to know what sort of interceptors the USSR would've been using in the 1940s.

 

Thanks in advance.

I don't remember off the top of my head but I can get you a MIG 15 for 125k

I know that the Mig 1 and various versions of the Mig 3 were around...

Mig-3 Interceptor or the Il-2 Sturmovik or both.

What the ****ing hell?

 

The Il-2 was in it's prime I suppose. They also had a homebred version of the US P-39 Aircobra too. And they used a bunch of stuff made by Yakolev (i think that was the company name) that bore the YaK designation. I don't remember any of the numbers for those.

Thanks Nute, I owe you.

 

I just wanted to be a pedant about the craft that would have destroyed Palanguez' jet (and thus started the whole triffid invasion).

 

I thought: 'pedant' + 'military history' = 'Nute'
