Plot



.

The film tells the story of the preparations for the first bombing of Berlin by Soviet Air Forces in August 1941.

The complexity of the task consisted not only in the powerful air defense of the German territories, but also in the flight range. The strike group of the 1st Mine-Torpedo Aviation Regiment of the 8th air brigade of the Baltic Fleet Air Force under the command of Colonel Yevgeny Preobrazhensky had to overcome almost 1800 kilometers without refueling. The route passed along the line: the island of Ezel Saaremaa - Swinemnde - Stettin - Berlin at a distance of 1765 km, of which 1400 km were above the sea. The flight duration was 7 hours. The main defense against enemy air defenses could only be the flight altitude, but it was not just a high altitude, but the maximum - 7 thousand meters. The temperature outside reached minus 35-40 degrees, because of which the glass of the cockpits of the aircraft and the goggles of the headsets froze over. In addition, the pilots had to work all these hours in oxygen masks.

That night, five planes of the 1st Mine-Torpedo Aviation Regiment, led by its commander Yevgeny Preobrazhensky, flew over Berlin, attacking military targets in Berlin, the rest bombed the German port city of Stettin. My place is Berlin! The task was completed. Let's go back to base!" These words of radio operator Vasily Krotenko sounded live on the night of August 8, 1941 over the blazing ruins of military facilities in the capital of the Third Reich.
