line scout aircraft.
(In 1947, the bureau conducted a preliminary elaboration of refitting
long-range bomber ╚ 1969 ╩ (TU-8) in the option fotorazvedchika.
This variant was designated the Tu-28. In this design five-seater
aircraft has not changed. Provides for the replacement weapons,
installing the latest models of photographic equipment and extra

of a camera AFA-30/200 for routine shooting AFA-33/75-50 for

It's very strange, such an antenna is applied to the interceptor Tu-1, which had a radar "Gneiss-5"...
