And KG26_alpha, the film you said about is probably the old Soviet film "torpedo bomber" (quite a good film IMHO), but the aircrafts are Il-4T, not Il-2.

Well the dispute is did the The Navy use them, not a production aircraft but a converted variant with canon removed.
For me .......... yes I would like it to have existed.

Re: the film, I'm sure it was a IL2-T Naval squadron based at a coastal airfield but it was 30 years ago I saw it so I will stand corrected
