Tupolev TB-1
The Tupolev TB-1 (development name ANT-4) was a Soviet bomber aircraft, an angular monoplane that served as the backbone of the Soviet bomber force for many years, and was the first large all-metal aircraft built in the Soviet Union.
Design and development
In 1924, the Soviet Air Force instructed TsAGI, (Центра́льный аэрогидродинами́ческий институ́т (ЦАГИ) – Tsentralniy Aerogidrodinamicheskiy Institut or Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute) to design a heavy-bomber. TsAGI gave the task to the division led by Andrei Tupolev. Tupolev's team designed a twin engined all-metal monoplane with a corrugated Duralumin skin — based on Tupolev's earlier work in utilizing the all-metal aircraft design techniques first pioneered by Hugo Junkers in 1918 — powered by two Napier Lion engines, and named the ANT-4.
The first prototype was built during 1925 on the second floor of Tupolev's factory in Moscow, it being necessary to knock down a wall to allow the aircraft to taken out of the building in pieces. After re-assembly at Moscow's Khodynka Aerodrome, it was flown on 26 November 1925.

The first Soviet heavy bomber
The Tupolev TB-1 ANT-4 was a Soviet torpedo bomber. The world's first serial twin-engine all-metal bomber. TB-1, a cantilever monoplane with a thick multi-spar wing, corrugated skin, was developed in 9 months and built in 1925 from chain mail. He was in service with the Red Army Air Force until 1936. The ANT-4 marked the beginning of a family of multi-engine aircraft created under the leadership of A. N. Tupolev. The direct development of the ANT-4, the multi-purpose ANT-7, was even more successful. After being decommissioned, the TB-1 was transferred to Aeroflot and the Northern Sea Route, where under the brand name G-1 cargo - the first was used until the decommissioning of the last aircraft in 1947. Thus, the aircraft were operated for 20 years after the first flight. The restored copy...

The Bomber That Inspired A Generation Of Giant Aircraft | Tupolev ANT-4 [Aircraft Overview #26]
Tupolev is well known for its big aircraft in the 1920s and 1930s, perhaps the most famous being the impressive ANT-20 "Maxim Gorky. Today we are looking at the ANT-4, the first all-metal bomber developed by Tupolev, and the first heavy bomber to be fielded by the Soviet Union. It led a distinguished life, and gained great fame when it flew from Moscow to New York on an easterly route that covered Russia, the Bering Strait and all of North America. As the TB-1, it formed the foundation for the Soviet Bomber force and heralded the start of a line of impressive aircraft that would establish Tupolev as one of Russia's greatest aircraft manufacturers. *** Producing these videos is a hobby of mine.

Самолёты ТБ-1 в к/ф "Танкисты" (1939) / Tupolev TB-1 aircraft in the film "Tank Troopers" (1939)
Высадка парашютного десанта самолётами ТБ-1 с подфюзеляжными кабинами ПК-1 в художественном фильме "Танкисты", 1939 год. ТБ-1 (АНТ-4) — советский самолёт конструкции А. Н. Туполева. Создавался как бомбардировщик-торпедоносец, но использовался также как военно-транспортный самолёт для перевозки и высадки парашютных десантов. Специальных военно-транспортных самолетов в начале 1930-х в СССР не существовало. Грузоперевозки, как и высадка десантов, возлагались на бомбардировщики. Парашютисты поначалу размещались в бомбоотсеках, что имело свои недостатки. Поскольку ТБ-1 разрабатывался как торпедоносец, он имел высокие стойки шасси, что позволяло подвешивать грузы под фюзеляжем. Было перепробовано несколько вариантов подфюзеляжного размещения грузов и парашютистов. В итоге, в 1932 году на воору...

The Tupolev TB-1 (development name ANT-4) was a Soviet bomber aircraft, an angular monoplane that served as the backbone of the Soviet bomber force for many years, and was the first large all-metal aircraft built in the Soviet Union.

The first prototype was built during 1925 on the second floor of Tupolev's factory in Moscow, it being necessary to knock down a wall to allow the aircraft to be taken out of the building in pieces. After reassembly at Moscow's Khodynka Aerodrome, it was flown on 26 November 1925.
Testing was successful, and it was decided to put the ANT-4 into production as the TB-1. Production was delayed, however, by shortages of aluminium, and by the need to find a replacement for the expensive imported Lion engines, the BMW VI (and later the Soviet licence-built version, the Mikulin M-17). Production eventually started at the ex-Junkers factory at Fili, Moscow in 1929, 216 following the two prototypes, production continuing until 1932. It was produced in both wheel- and float-gear variants (a total of 66 ANT-4 seaplanes built).
The first production aircraft was completed as an unarmed civil aircraft, named Strana Sovyetov (Land of the Soviets) for a propaganda flight from Moscow to New York, taking an eastward course via Siberia, reaching its destination on 3 November, flying 21,242 km (13,194 mi) in 137 flying hours. The TB-1 became the Soviet Air Forces' first standard heavy bomber, also being fitted with floats for use as a torpedo bomber (TB-1P), and for aerial survey operations.
The TB-1 was replaced as a heavy bomber by the similar, but much larger, four-engined Tupolev TB-3, with many aircraft being converted to civil freighters (designated G-1) for use by Aeroflot and Aviaarktika, Aeroflot's polar division. One Avia Arktika ANT-4, flown by Anatoly Liapidevsky, played a key role in the rescue of the crew of the steamship Chelyuskin, which sank on 12 February 1934 after being trapped in ice near the Bering Strait. Liapidevsky was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. G-1s continued in use with Avia Arktika until 1948.

The Tupolev TB-1 ANT-4 was a Soviet torpedo bomber. The world's first serial twin-engine all-metal bomber. TB-1, a cantilever monoplane with a thick multi-spar wing, corrugated skin, was developed in 9 months and built in 1925 from chain mail. He was in service with the Red Army Air Force until 1936. The ANT-4 marked the beginning of a family of multi-engine aircraft created under the leadership of A. N. Tupolev. The direct development of the ANT-4, the multi-purpose ANT-7, was even more successful. After being decommissioned, the TB-1 was transferred to Aeroflot and the Northern Sea Route, where under the brand name G-1 cargo - the first was used until the decommissioning of the last aircraft in 1947. Thus, the aircraft were operated for 20 years after the first flight. The restored copy of the G-1 with the registration number USSR-N317 became an exhibit of the Museum of Civil Aviation in Ulyanovsk. A special technical bureau for military inventions in Leningrad created aircraft mines and torpedoes. Sovnarkom instructed the Ostech Bureau to work out a task for an aircraft capable of carrying a torpedo or two mines for several hundred kilometers. We considered the option of implementing the project in England, where there was experience in the construction and use of such aircraft. But it was abandoned because of the high cost of half a million rubles in currency and a period of one and a half years. The terms of reference regulated the speed not lower than 165 km / h and the load of 2000 kg. The Ostech Bureau made a proposal to modify for this task the 2B-L1 bomber of the Aircraft Plant No. 1 "Dux" built by order of the Air Force according to the project of the experienced designer L. D. Kolpakov-Miroshnichenko. The project to convert the 2B-L1 into a torpedo bomber was completed and paid for, but not used due to objections from the Air Force leadership and low evaluation of the project. Until 1930, heavy rivals of the ANT-4 were designed. Among them is the TB-2 of the little-known at that time designer N. N. Polikarpov. However, the history of this successful, with excellent flight performance, but belated aircraft with the same engines as the ANT-4, ended with the arrest and sentencing of the designer to death. The sentence was commuted to work in a prison "sharag".

By the 1930’s it was well understood that military aircraft would play a crucial role in future conflicts. But there was an issue that had challenged aircraft designers since the dawn of flight. Large, heavy aircraft, like bombers, could carry plenty of fuel, allowing them to fly great distances, but smaller planes like fighters needed to be light and agile could carry only a small amount, limiting their range. This mismatch in flight range meant that on long range missions, bombers couldnt rely on the protection of escorting fighters.
In 1932 a pioneering Soviet engineer named Vladamir Vakhmistrov proposed a novel solution to this problem. Vakhmistrov realized that larger aircraft could be used to carry smaller ones to their targets where they could then be deployed to defend the bombers whenever needed. This would solve the short range problem of smaller, lighter aircraft. Normally, such an arraignment would significantly reduce the bomber’s own range, given the extra weight and drag caused by carrying aircraft. But Vakhmistrov's brilliant solution was to have the fighters also operate their engines during flight, contributing to the bomber’s total thrust. In fact, the fighters would help increase the bombers performance by providing more power than without the fighters attached. While connected to the carrier, the fighters would draw fuel from additional fuel reserves fitted inside the bomber’s wings. Vakhmistrov also proposed using the flying aircraft carriers for more than just protection. The fighters could be carried to far away targets to conduct more accurate dive bombing. They could also stay airborne to guard borders and engage incoming aircraft when needed.
Vakhmistrov would call his creation, Zveno (where in Russian the word ‘Zveno’ means ‘Chain Link’ or a ‘flight’ as pertains to a combat unit). The basis of Vakmistrov’s flying aircraft carriers would be the Tupolev TB-1 and later TB-3, the largest bombers of their time. Over a dozen configurations would be tested using various fighter aircraft. But development would be protracted, and it wouldn't be until the summer of 1941 that Zveno carriers would help make a meaningful contribution to the defense of the Soviet Union.

Высадка парашютного десанта самолётами ТБ-1 с подфюзеляжными кабинами ПК-1 в художественном фильме "Танкисты", 1939 год.
ТБ-1 (АНТ-4) — советский самолёт конструкции А. Н. Туполева. Создавался как бомбардировщик-торпедоносец, но использовался также как военно-транспортный самолёт для перевозки и высадки парашютных десантов.
Специальных военно-транспортных самолетов в начале 1930-х в СССР не существовало. Грузоперевозки, как и высадка десантов, возлагались на бомбардировщики. Парашютисты поначалу размещались в бомбоотсеках, что имело свои недостатки. Поскольку ТБ-1 разрабатывался как торпедоносец, он имел высокие стойки шасси, что позволяло подвешивать грузы под фюзеляжем. Было перепробовано несколько вариантов подфюзеляжного размещения грузов и парашютистов. В итоге, в 1932 году на вооружение был принят наиболее удачный вариант - подфюзеляжная кабина ПК-1. Весила она около тонны и вмещала 16 десантников. Они сидели внутри кабины верхом на двух узких лавках. По сигналу командира бойцы скользили по лавкам вперед и один за другим выпадали вниз через открытые люки. Всего было построено и передано в авиачасти 50 подфюзеляжных кабин ПК-1.

The Tupolev TB-1 (development name ANT-4) was a Soviet bomber aircraft, an angular monoplane that served as the backbone of the Soviet bomber force for many years, and was the first large all-metal aircraft built in the Soviet Union.
In 1924, the Soviet Air Force instructed TsAGI, (Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute) to design a heavy-bomber. TsAGI gave the task to the division led by Andrei Tupolev. Tupolev's team designed a twin-engined all-metal monoplane with a corrugated Duralumin skin — based on Tupolev's earlier work utilizing the all-metal aircraft design techniques first pioneered by Hugo Junkers in 1918 — powered by two Napier Lion engines, and named the ANT-4.
The first prototype was built during 1925 on the second floor of Tupolev's factory in Moscow, it being necessary to knock down a wall to allow the aircraft to be taken out of the building in pieces. After reassembly at Moscow's Khodynka Aerodrome, it was flown on 26 November 1925.
Testing was successful, and it was decided to put the ANT-4 into production as the TB-1. Production was delayed, however, by shortages of aluminium, and by the need to find a replacement for the expensive imported Lion engines, the BMW VI (and later the Soviet licence-built version, the Mikulin M-17). Production eventually started at the ex-Junkers factory at Fili, Moscow in 1929, 216 following the two prototypes, production continuing until 1932. It was produced in both wheel- and float-gear variants (a total of 66 ANT-4 seaplanes built).
The first production aircraft was completed as an unarmed civil aircraft, named Strana Sovyetov (Land of the Soviets) for a propaganda flight from Moscow to New York, taking an eastward course via Siberia, reaching its destination on 3 November, flying 21,242 km (13,194 mi) in 137 flying hours. The TB-1 became the Soviet Air Forces' first standard heavy bomber, also being fitted with floats for use as a torpedo bomber (TB-1P), and for aerial survey operations.
The TB-1 was replaced as a heavy bomber by the similar, but much larger, four-engined Tupolev TB-3, with many aircraft being converted to civil freighters (designated G-1) for use by Aeroflot and Aviaarktika, Aeroflot's polar division. One Avia Arktika ANT-4, flown by Anatoly Liapidevsky, played a key role in the rescue of the crew of the steamship Chelyuskin, which sank on 12 February 1934 after being trapped in ice near the Bering Strait. Liapidevsky was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. G-1s continued in use with Avia Arktika until 1948.

The Tupolev TB-1 ANT-4 was a Soviet torpedo bomber. The world's first serial twin-engine all-metal bomber. TB-1, a cantilever monoplane with a thick multi-spar wing, corrugated skin, was developed in 9 months and built in 1925 from chain mail. He was in service with the Red Army Air Force until 1936. The ANT-4 marked the beginning of a family of multi-engine aircraft created under the leadership of A. N. Tupolev. The direct development of the ANT-4, the multi-purpose ANT-7, was even more successful. After being decommissioned, the TB-1 was transferred to Aeroflot and the Northern Sea Route, where under the brand name G-1 cargo - the first was used until the decommissioning of the last aircraft in 1947. Thus, the aircraft were operated for 20 years after the first flight. The restored copy of the G-1 with the registration number USSR-N317 became an exhibit of the Museum of Civil Aviation in Ulyanovsk. A special technical bureau for military inventions in Leningrad created aircraft mines and torpedoes. Sovnarkom instructed the Ostech Bureau to work out a task for an aircraft capable of carrying a torpedo or two mines for several hundred kilometers. We considered the option of implementing the project in England, where there was experience in the construction and use of such aircraft. But it was abandoned because of the high cost of half a million rubles in currency and a period of one and a half years. The terms of reference regulated the speed not lower than 165 km / h and the load of 2000 kg. The Ostech Bureau made a proposal to modify for this task the 2B-L1 bomber of the Aircraft Plant No. 1 "Dux" built by order of the Air Force according to the project of the experienced designer L. D. Kolpakov-Miroshnichenko. The project to convert the 2B-L1 into a torpedo bomber was completed and paid for, but not used due to objections from the Air Force leadership and low evaluation of the project. Until 1930, heavy rivals of the ANT-4 were designed. Among them is the TB-2 of the little-known at that time designer N. N. Polikarpov. However, the history of this successful, with excellent flight performance, but belated aircraft with the same engines as the ANT-4, ended with the arrest and sentencing of the designer to death. The sentence was commuted to work in a prison "sharag".

Tupolev is well known for its big aircraft in the 1920s and 1930s, perhaps the most famous being the impressive ANT-20 "Maxim Gorky. Today we are looking at the ANT-4, the first all-metal bomber developed by Tupolev, and the first heavy bomber to be fielded by the Soviet Union.
It led a distinguished life, and gained great fame when it flew from Moscow to New York on an easterly route that covered Russia, the Bering Strait and all of North America. As the TB-1, it formed the foundation for the Soviet Bomber force and heralded the start of a line of impressive aircraft that would establish Tupolev as one of Russia's greatest aircraft manufacturers.
