The Ilyushin Il 2 Shturmovik was one of WWII's greatest aircraft and were very well armoured.
It was an all metal, low-winged monoplane designed for low altitude tank-busting.
The Ilyushin Il 2 Shturmovik was loved by Russia and feared by the enemy.
They were highly mass produced with over 36,000 of them built in both one seater and two seater versions.
