well, about soviet "transport" li-2 - do not expect to carry only anti-aircraft gunners (зенитчицы) and canned meat - all planes was armed and have, at least, one machine gun...

yeah, and what i found now about weapon loads for Li-2 bomber, in total (it's li-2 with or 4 shkas, or 3 shkas and 1 UBT) -

lot of small bombs (i think, ao-2.5, ao-25 etc)...

lot of fab-100...

4 fab-250...

2 fab-500 and 2 fab-250...

4 fab-500 (overload)...

4 rs-82...

well... if only half of this true, it's really not bad for "just cargo"...
