EDITORS COMMENTS
VL Myrsky II-47: Finnish Fighter-Bombers of World War II This photograph showcases a formation of VL Myrsky II-47 fighter-bombers, an essential component of the Finnish Air Force during the latter stages of World War II. The Myrsky II-47, meaning "Storm" in Finnish, entered service in August 1944 and played a significant role in Finland's defensive efforts against the Soviet Union. The Myrsky II-47 was a versatile aircraft, capable of both fighter and bomber missions. Its sleek design and powerful engines offered impressive performance, making it a formidable adversary in the skies. However, the aircraft's structural weaknesses became apparent during combat, limiting its effectiveness and ultimately requiring extensive modifications. The VL Myrsky II-47 was an indigenous Finnish design, developed in response to the country's need for modern military aircraft during the continuing hostilities of World War II. Its entry into service came at a critical time, as the Soviet Union launched a series of offensives against Finnish forces in the eastern and northern fronts. Despite its structural issues, the Myrsky II-47 remained a vital part of Finland's air defense until the end of the war. This photograph serves as a testament to the bravery and resilience of the Finnish Air Force during the tumultuous years of World War II. The legacy of the VL Myrsky II-47 continues to be an important chapter in the history of Finnish aviation and military history.
