Soviet Night Witches

The soviet night witches were an all female air squadron in world or two. They flew these incredibly light planes, made of just ply wood and canvas. The reason they had to be so light was cause they could stall a long way from their target,. And sort of drift close to the target - which meant that they were very quiet. But what if they, sorry, where ther they? Fighterplanes? They bomboplanes. Aow and oly. They dropp 23 thousand tons of bombs in the wars.
