In 1943, 78 years ago, the Ilyushin IL-2-37 made its first flight. This variant featured 37 mm frontal cannons on the wings, designed to penetrate tanks easier. This new addition was first used in the Battle of Kursk, however to little effect as bombs were more effective. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/E5XC-f-WQAIpAYp.jpg
