# Talk:Petlyakov Pe-3

I have begun (and ended) a GA review, which can be found here. It was an easy pass, with only a minor comment. Lәo(βǃʘʘɱ) 03:39, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Sturm, I promised I would look this over, and I apologize for the delay.  I've made some minor tweaks (swapped subject/object, strengthened verbs, etc.) in the text.  There are two parts that need clarification.  What is a tactical bomber and why did the German bombing of Moscow convince the Soviets they needed one.  I tweaked the lead a bit, to put some important info up front (i.e., this was WWII).  We need to understand the bis after the number.  What's that about?

I'm just happy that you found the time to get to it; don't worry about the delay. I've changed tactical bomber to high-speed bomber which should be a bit clearer to the ordinary reader and clarified that it was originally designed to be a night fighter. I also added a note about explaining the bis designation. I'm not sure that I like the one sentence lead paragraph, but we'll see how it flies. How does it read now?--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:40, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
I'm still not clear on the first sentence in the development. why did they need these aircraft.  How does a high speed bomber protect a city being bombed?  Auntieruth55 (talk) 17:00, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
Strictly speaking, it doesn't protect anything. But a night fighter derived from a high-speed bomber can at least try to do so.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:38, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
