you'll see it's a C46
Oh dear, just reduced my Total Aviation Person quotient However, in my defence, I did think it was a rather "fat" DC-3!

I've even found a bloody great nuc(?) sub on the Volga
I'm a nosy bugger, aren't I
Dear Nosy Mushroom,

Surprisingly, your sub (a Sierra?) is at a submarine shipyard in Nizhny Novgorod. The Volga is linked to the Baltic and the Black Sea via very large canals.

SAM ....any more like this?
Ask and you shall receive. This will keep you busy. SAM sites, complete with range rings - Google Earth Blog: Surface to Air Missile Sites in Google Earth

And a bit closer to (my) home - here's an interesting hexagonal pattern at Tan Son Nhat airport - radar guided AAA 10°49'32.30"N 106°39'20.05"E. There is another one a little to the north.
