In any case, I have to say no again.
The plane by the same design bureau will help, I hope:

I thought it looked a kind of funny, but couldn't tell exactly whyYes, "ordinary" Stalinetz S-65, only fitted with salvaged Lend-Lease truck cabin.
Well, the next question is about diplomacy. The Great Brittain acted as the fixer between Soviet Union and Poland about territorial disputes in Spring 1944. Churchill mentioned in his personal and secret message to Stalin of 21 March 1944, that he is about to make the following announcement in the Brittish House of Commons on the Polish situation: "We now consider all questions of territorial change must await the armistice or peace conferences of the victorious Powers; and that in the meantime we can recognise no forcible transferences of territory."
How did Stalin respond?
