Description
ANT-4 and later TB-1 - heavy bomber constructed in 1924 by Andrey Tupolev. Crew - 6 members. Weaponry: 3 coaxial 7,62 mm DA MGs. Bomb weight - 1000 kg.
Some interesting facts: TB-1 was telemechanical plane, which could fly without pilot by using only radiophare's signals. Thus this machine could deliver tons of explosives in any part of northern hemisphere 30 years before intercontinental planes-shell "Snark", "Buran", "Burya" appeared.
so i guess this is WW1?
WW II
Why WWII!?
Coz it was created after WW I !!!
look at description, it was constructed in 1924 so logicaly it was not used in WWI.
