I'm looking for some historical figures on the numbers of different types of aircraft transferred under Lend Lease and who they went to; additionally, pre-Lend Lease sales of aircraft, such as to the French and British Purchasing Commissions, that occured under Cash and Carry are something I eager to find.

Well there is this that was linked to from Wikipedia.

http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USA/ref/LL-Ship/LL-Ship-7.html

Under Army Air Forces they have Heavy Bombers, Medium, Light, Fighters, Helicopters, Transport, Trainers, etc, and by various nation and type.

"B-17 ----Planes, British Empire, 162".

A bit of other stuff too. Trucks, trains, general supplies.

Ah, excellent. That will help develop a picture of what was acquired, and what gaps it filled.

Is there a list of what the Soviet Union acquired from the Western Allies?

Yes, there are substantial details on the numbers of tanks, aircraft and guns and specific details on miscellaneous equipment.

I can see what I can dig out from the above link. Anything specific, or just a general list?

A general list could be interesting. Apparently the Soviets had a habit of procuring some of everything for experimental purposes.

Here is the list I thought we had:

It does make you wonder about the two Lend Lease pianos. I'll throw in the weapons directly.

Perhaps the pianos were diplomatic gifts or something like that and they were placed on the list to cover all the bases?
