I think nowadays, our (Russian) sources become more and more closed due to censorship on the Internet (I mean Runet), as well as new policy of our president.. I'm afraid a new Cold War awaits us

Thank you Volodya, anything related with squadrons, their stations (or even their general operation area, if airfileds are not known), and the aircraft they operated with timespans for each station/aircraft.
Sure enough, areas that we are mainly inerested in are the Barents, the Baltic and the Black seas. My database of aircraft modelled for SHIII-IV, features the following Soviet-operated planes (most of them are in SH5 already):
floatplanes:
Beriev Be-2 (KOR-1)
Vought OS2U Kingfisher
flying boats:
Beriev MBR-2
Supermarine Walrus
Consolidated PBY / GST / PBN Catalina
fighters:
Yakovlev Yak-1 / Yak-7 / Yak-9 / Yak-3
Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-3
Lavochkin La-7
Seversky P-35
Curtiss P-40 Warhawk / Tomahawk
Republic P-47 Thunderbolt
Gloster SS.37 Gladiator (captured aircraft)
Hawker Hurricane
Supermarine Spitfire
heavy fighters:
Messerschmitt Bf 110 (captured aircraft)
light bombers:
Ilyushin Il-2 Shturmovik
de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito
medium bombers:
Ilyushin DB-3
Tupolev Tu-2
Junkers Ju 88 (captured aircraft)
We are in need of any information can help us in placing them in campaign as accurately as possible.
