O Sukhoi Su-7 (Nome de designação da OTAN: Fitter-A) foi um caça supersônico de asa varrida desenvolvido pela União Soviética em 1955. Originalmente, foi projetado como um caça tático de baixo nível, mas não teve sucesso nessa função. Por outro lado, a série Su-7B logo introduzida tornou-se o principal caça-bombardeiro soviético e aeronave de ataque ao solo da década de 1960. O Su-7 era robusto em sua simplicidade, mas suas deficiências incluíam curto alcance e baixa carga de armas.

It was flown by a number of the famous aces, such as France’s Georges Guynemer, Italy’s Francesco Baracca and Australia’s Alexander Pentland.

Galeria de fotos de um VT-34, The T-34 medium tank is one of the most-produced and longest-lived tanks of all time. Identification of T-34 variants can be complicated. Turret castings, superficial details, and equipment differed between factories; new features were added in the middle of production runs, or retrofitted to older tanks; damaged tanks were rebuilt, sometimes with the addition of newer-model equipment and even new turrets. Some tanks had appliqué armor made of scrap steel of varying thickness welded onto the hull and turret; these tanks are called s ekranami (“with screens”), although this was never an official designation for any T-34 variant. T-34 model 1941 s ekranami, manufactured at STZ, with appliqué armour welded to the hull.
