Red Riposte: the Soviet Volunteer Group Over Formosa

"In Volume 2 Number 2, Chandelle featured an article on China's aerial resistance to Japanese invasion during the 1930s. The piece mentioned a dramatic but little-known episode of that long conflict, an air raid mounted against the island of Formosa (now Taiwan) by Tupolev SB bombers of the Soviet Volunteer Group in China, then assisting Chiang Kai-Shek's forces. At the time, this was one of the longest-ranging air attacks ever mounted. But details have been all but impossible to find in English, until now. Chandelle reader/correspondent Alexis Luks has located and translated firsthand Russian accounts of the Formosa mission and produced the following report."

Thanks for this info!! I've just fired off an order to Tumbling Dice to complete my Nationalist Chinese airforce…..I finished my Jap forces several years ago but was stumped for scenarios and by what planes to equip my Chinese with….now they have Gladiators, Polikarpov I15 & 16's, Tupolev SB medium bombers….the Japs were reinforced with Nakajima 27's too.
Itching to get started now!
