La-7 fighters of the 9th Guards Odessa Fighter Aviation Regiment in the hangar of an airfield in East Prussia. May 1945.
The close-range fighter is the aircraft of the Hero of the Soviet Union Sultan Akhmet-Khan (1920-1971). The long-range fighter is the aircraft of Akhmet-Khan's wingman, Borisov. Both aircraft have the same emblems: an eagle against the background of the Moon
with a German Focke-Wulf Fw.190 fighter in its claws. The front fairings and spinners are red, like all the aircraft of the 9th GIAP at that time
