Tupolev TB-3

This is a plane that use the Soviet Air Force. They started design work in 1926 with the government operational requirements finalized in 1929 as the version Tupolev TB-1. The TB-3 was older than the others if we are talking about its look, its tecnology and its hability to work well, but it was used during the 2nd World War.
The people who wants to use it in the war knows that it were going to be crashed and destroy in a lot of battles, and afortunately, they were wrong. So much pilots felt down in the war with this plane, more than they want, but the aircraft went fine, was a good airplane and wins a lot of battles.
