The Douglas C-47 Skytrain (or Dakota) is an American twin-engine, all-metal transport aircraft from the Second World War. It was a very successful military adaptation of the Douglas DC-3 aircraft. The test flight of the C-47 prototype took place on December 23, 1941. Serial production started in January 1942, which ended with the production of over 10,000 copies of this aircraft by the end of 1945. The basic power unit were two Pratt-Whitney R-1830-92 engines with a power of 1200KM each. A dozen or so versions of the C-47 were created, of which the A version (reinforced cabin, 24V electrical system in the plane) and B (more powerful engines) were produced on the largest scale. The C-47 fought on all fronts of World War II as a transport plane, evacuation of the wounded, specialist for paratroopers or towing gliders. These
