Were those U-2VS listed as lost in a mismatched battle report somewhere?

Air battles during the Soviet phases initiated on the Soviet side shown below. I clicked on all the battles listing a lost Soviet bomber - none included U2-VS.

Battles during Soviet logistics phase - none included U2VS. However the loss was listed as being during the action phase anyway.

Last U2VS factory was overrun by Axis ground forces on turn 59 see post 1069 here tm.asp?m=4250683&mpage=36 . During the team game before we tracked all the other U2VS factories and saw them being overrun by Axis ground forces.

It's the U-2VS that EvK used to escape. Refurbished, sold on an 'as is' basis.

Imported from other variant? Though in my current data I can't see import being configured.

This game was started in v1.10 data and there are no imports/exports/conversions to U2VS. I believe this feature has remained unchanged in every version. And none described in the real log reports.

My guess is related to this bug and so unfixable?

The Soviet Union particularly (not) appreciated the M3 tanks!

There is a book, Great British Tanks of WWII. It's a very thin book.

Even more fun was watching tanks expert Nicholas Moran ("The Chieftain") do his review of armoured fighting vehicles of the Irish army - which left me asking really? Turns out the Irish army has had two AFVs. No not two types of AFV - I mean they have only had two AFVs!

Watch how well he pads out this video!

Why is that your version shows U2-VS under "Dive Bomber", while my 1.11.03 as "Tactical Bomber"? I assume it's a game started with older generic data (pre 1.11.01)?
