Douglas C-47 Skytrain (from English “air train”) also called “Dakota” (DACoTA, or Douglas Aircraft Company Transport Aircraft) is one of the most popular transport aircraft from the Second World War. Produced by the USA, it was also used by the armies of other Allied countries. It was based on the design of the civilian version of the Douglas DC-3. It appeared on basically all fronts of World War II and was used long after its end. It was used, among others, for the landing of paratroopers and towing gliders, as well as for the transport of supplies, ammunition and the evacuation of the wounded.
