Po-2/U-2 colour schemes

XabbaRus · 09-20-08, 05:07 PM

What were the colour schemes used? I was thinking of making a proper paint job for it.

That depends on what variant you are talking about

Well what was the difference between the two? I'm having a hard time tracking down camo schemes apart from the all green variant.

The U-2 was used as a Night Bomber, a Trainer, a Cropduster, and all sorts of other stuff, what are you looking for?

Pretty much WWII colour schemes.

I've only seen 2 different camoschemes used on the U2. Either full green or green with black camopattern. Pretty much the standard camo that VVS fighters used.

Here's a pretty good site telling the colors of different schemes the VVS had:

Indeed, even the U-2LNG (The night bomber variant), was painted in the same manner, guess I was wrong in asking what variant...

Strange little aircraft, the Po-2...

Also we can recreat missions of the 588th unit the Nightwitches now...
