Soviet Union
The USSR received 2,908 Douglas twin-engined attack aircraft; more than one in three Havocs produced. The Soviet Air Force (VVS) often modified the aircraft using Soviet gun turrets and armament.
Nearly every anti-shipping aircraft in the Soviet Naval Air Service was a Havoc A-20G fitted to drop torpedoes and mines.[2]
In one surprising instance, a Havoc was shot down by the Luftwaffe over the Gulf of Finland and it was discovered that the gunner was a woman. Women primarily appeared in the Soviet Air Force in three official regiments but a few served alongside men in otherwise all-male units.[3]
