I agree... I thought that they were very small... Maybe the were the attachment points for larger skis?

They were for operating from semi-prepared surfaces. There is a video of the aircraft taxiing on grass, it performs very well.
In the end Su-7BKL (meaning Ski/Wheels Bomber) used a complex undercarriage with small skis aside the main gear. Here

Hope this helps.

Hi MiTasol. I just found this thread and I, for one, would be interested in seeing that T-6 ski installation.
Thanks for your trouble.

Here it is.

Sorry about the watermark but a certain commercial site has uploaded and sells other manuals I have uploaded here so that people can enjoy them at no cost.
