Aicraft is on display at the Victory Museum , Moscow along with several other WW2 types , Me 109F , I-153 new build Yak 3 , IL2 etc. I visited in 1996 and was also told they were original , but without engines . I have since become good friends with those who constructed them for the museum . Some parts of the IL-2 are genuine and apart from the new production Yak the rest are TOTAL replicas .
