Photo Pack
The Polikarpov U-2, renamed the Po-2 in 1944 following the death of its designer Nikolai Polikarpov, was an exceptionally simple, robust, and versatile Soviet multi-role biplane. Originally designed as a basic pilot trainer, its low manufacturing costs, forgiving flight characteristics, and excellent short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities made it one of the most heavily produced designs in aviation history. Mass production ran from 1928 until 1952, with over 30,000 units built. During World War II, it was famously used by the all-female 46th Guards Night Bomber Regiment, nicknamed the "Night Witches" by German forces, who utilized the biplane's low stall speed to glide silently over targets for stealth bombing raids. The Po-2 remained in active service for several decades, later participating in the Korean War.
