Tupolev A-3

And now for something completely different: the Tupolev A-3 Aerosledge is an all-metal amphibious aerosledge, designed to transport passengers and light freight in the remote frozen tundra of Siberia and the former Soviet Union. We will be taking a closer look at the Tupolev A-3 in the next few days.

Best viewed large.
