Looking for infos about the Ilyushin IL 40 Brawny

[XB-35]

Hi All,

As the Ukrainian firm A-model has released two different kits of the prototypes IL 40 Brawny, I am looking for detailled infos about these obscure planes.

I have only found one photograph of the prototype (the second one) on the Web and I wonder if some views of the cockpit are available (as other details of the plane) somewhere ?

Thanks for the help !

Best regards

XB-35
