Has everyone seen the History Channel presentation of "Stealing the
Superfortress" the story of how the soviets coped the B-29 and created the Tu-4?

If you are interested, the complete video has been posted on YouTube:

When I first saw the Lisunov Li2 at Krakow Aviation Museum I thought
that the USSR had done the same there, but it seems that it was a
commercially licence built version of the DC-4 from a 1941 agreement.

Also license-built in Japan from 1938.
