This particular aircraft was flown by the Hero of the Soviet Union, Lieutenant V.T. Aleksuhin, serving in the 167th Guards Air Regiment, 617 ShAP, during the pivotal year of 1943. Lt. Aleksuhin's IL-2M3 played a vital role on the Eastern Front, contributing to the Soviet efforts against the German forces during World War II.

Aleksuhin's "Alexander Suvorov" participated in numerous conflicts on the Eastern Front, providing crucial air cover for Soviet ground forces. The IL-2's robust design and firepower made it a formidable opponent against enemy tanks and ground targets, earning it the nickname "Flying Tank" among Soviet troops.
