We got into an interesting discussion over in the IL-2 lounge about the Soviet TB-3. That got me to wondering if it might have been the oldest bomber deployed during the war.
I know that some of the bombers used had thier roots reaching back a ways but thier designs had evolved to a certain degree.
As far as unchanged designs go, was there a bomber that was older than the TB-3 used in action? The Tupolev TB-3 was designed in the late 20's and first flew on 22 December 1930.
I checked to see if there was a thread covering this topic already, and came up empty-handed...if there is one already, let me know!
The Persians used Hawker Hinds and Audaxes which were pretty ancient
