I ordered some Soviet aircraft from a couple of online sellers in the Ukraine and the Russian Federation. I'll be putting up a series of photos of the Soviet aircraft I got, with regular AAAF planes (and repaints) in the photos, to give you an idea of the look on the table.
The manufacturer is De Agostini; you can find some of their products on sites like the Flying Mule.
This is the Tupolev TU-2, a light bomber with a four-member crew. It had three rearward firing 7.62 mm guns, so a bigger stinger than the Stuka.
The model purports to be 1/120 scale, and I grant that it looks smaller than it should be on the map, especially with a chunky aircraft like the Brewster tailing it.
According to the Wiki, the TU-2 was well-liked by pilots and was considered manoeuvrable for a twin-engine light bomber.
Since it was not available until 1941, it is not a Winter War participant, but would have fought the Finns in the Continuation War and, of course, the Germans. It looked OK with a Gustav on its tail.
I paid $7 USD for this one.
