The remains of a Second World War-era Bell P-39 Airacobra fighter aircraft have been pulled from the Black Sea.

The plane was hauled from the water in the Kalamita Bay, near the village of Novofyodorovka, Crimea, as part of a joint expedition of the Russian Geographical Society and the Russian Defence Ministry.

The aircraft had entered service with the Black Sea Fleet in 1943 but was forced to make a water landing just one year later due to a technical malfunction during a training flight.

The plane was discovered by amateur scuba diver Alexey Kazarinov in 2017 at a depth of six metres below the water surface and 800 meters from the coastline.

He told authorities the approximate coordinates of the accidental find but they could not locate the crash site for almost a year.

An official study of the fighter was eventually carried out in 2019 by an expedition of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation to search for sunken objects relating to the Great Patriotic War and retrieval of the plane began earlier this month.

The total flight time recorded in this plane at the time of the accident was 9 hours 25 minutes (the cockpit covered in sea urchins pictured).

Pictured, the P-39 Airacobra was a fighter aircraft made by Bell Aircraft.

It first flew in 1939 but was not introduced into the American fleet until 1944.


The fighter was transferred to a truck where guards were posted and it is now thought that the jet will become an exhibit of one of the museums.

Don't mind them.

Lots of people haven't seen pockets of skirmishes not to talk of war. They will scamper for safety at the sound of war plane engine. Nah online they get mouth.

My brother, you couldn't have said it more.

Only people with no idea of how things play out in war front would get orgasm at the mention of the prospect of a war.

People that haven't handle a pistol or experience the recoil of an AK47 would just be blabbing grin grin

WAR WAR WAR....


War is all we humans know and and understand....


To us Peace is an illusion. And no matter how tranquil the world seems, peace doesn't last long. Peace is a struggle against our very nature. A skin we stretch over the bone, muscle, and sinew of our own innate savagery.

I doubt war like world war 2 can be fought for the next 500 years. There's is economic warfare now and it much more effective for those who have the power
