https://www.yaplakal.com/forum2/topic1683490.htmlA separate story with the Lewis machine gun, from which Sukhov put a lot of bandits. In some scenes, this is really Lewis, but Sukhov shoots from a DP-27 machine gun disguised as Lewis. The reason, obviously, lies in the fact that the caliber of cartridges .303 British was not in the props, but the rifle 7, 62x54 mm R, which the Degtyarev machine gun feeds on-at least they are filled up. So I had to "make Lewis" for Soviet ammunition

The Forgotten Warrior Regia Aeronautica
http://alternathistory.com/frantsuzskie ... ronautica/This article about the successful French aircraft included in the Regia Aeronautica after the collapse of the Vichy Air Force is taken for the Aerei magazine from the book by Giancarlo Garello "Regia Aeronautica e Armée de l'Air-1940/1943" published by the Rome publishing house Bizzarri (Bizzarri). The same text appeared almost "simultaneously" in the French magazines "Aviation Magazine International" and "IARB" , as well as in the magazine of the Italian branch of the English historical association "Air Britain" (via Ravasi 18, 21100 Varese).
