Pe-2FT by V.M.Petlyakov, A.I.Putilov
In 1942 upgraded Pe-2 entered production. It was designated Pe-2FT (for Frontovoe Trebovanie, Front Demand). Stronger armoring, modified navigator's turret, extra defensive side ShKAS were introduced for better protection from Me-109G. Grid airbrakes removed.
Performance was similar to previous series aircraft, until in late 1943 new VK-105PF was installed (1210hp on takeoff, 1180hp at 2700m), adding 40km/h of speed.
