The Grigorovich I-2 was a biplane fighter aircraft of the Soviet Union, the first indigenous fighter to enter service in substantial numbers. Developed from the Grigorovich I-1, it first flew on 4 November 1924, piloted by A.I. Zhukov. The M-5 engine was a Soviet copy of the Liberty L-12.
Grigorovich M-5 was a successful Russian World War I-era two-bay unequal-span biplane flying boat with a single step hull, designed by Grigorovich. It was the first mass production flying boat built in Russia.
Grigorovich M-9 was a Russian World War I-era biplane flying boat, developed from the M-5 by Grigorovich.
Grigorovich M-15 was a successful Russian World War I-era biplane flying boat, developed from the M-9 by Grigorovich.
Grigorovich M-16 was a successful Russian World War I-era biplane flying boat of the Farman type, developed from the M-9 by Grigorovich. Somewhat larger than the M-9, the M-16 was a version especially intended for winter operations, with better aerodynamic qualities.
The Polikarpov R-5 was a Soviet reconnaissance bomber aircraft of the 1930s. It was the standard light bomber and reconnaissance aircraft of the Soviet Air Force for much of the 1930s, while also being used heavily as a civilian light transport, some 7,000 being built in total.
The Grigorovich M-11 was a Russian single-seat fighter flying boat designed by Dmitry Pavlovich Grigorovich and built by Shchetinin
The Grigorovich TB-5 was an experimental heavy bomber designed and tested in the Soviet Union in the early 1930s. Designed as a competitor for the Tupolev TB-3, the TB-5 was intended to be powered by two FED 24-cylinder X engines of 746 kW (1,000 hp) each. When these were canceled, the underwing pods were revised to each house a pair of Bristol Jupiter engines in a push-pull configuration. Despite projected performance inferior to TB-3, it was hoped that TB-5 would gain an advantage by using less metal thanks to its mixed construction of fabric-covered metal frame.
Grigorovich DI-3, , was a prototype two-seat fighter developed in the Soviet Union in the 1930s. It was intended to be a long-range escort fighter developed from the DI-2 with improved range and performance comparable to single-seat fighter aircraft of the time. DI-3 was a single-bay biplane of mixed construction with a twin-rudder tailplane of variable incidence. Although initial tests demonstrated flight characteristics comparable to Polikarpov I-5, the addition of armament and operational equipment caused significant degradation in performance and DI-3 did not enter mass production. The prototype was subsequently fitted with an enclosed cockpit and used as a VIP transport.
The MDR-3 (a.k.a.11) was a long-range flying boat designed and built in the USSR from 1931.
The Grigorovich MK-1 was a large trimotor floatplane, built and tested in Imperial Russia in 1916.
The Grigorovich MU-2 was a trainer flying boat built in the Soviet Union in the mid-1920s. It was designed by the Grigorovich Design Bureau after the failure of the Grigorovich MUR-1, featuring an all-metal hull. However, it was never put into production due to poor performance and sluggish take-off behavior.
The Grigorovich MUR-1,, was a trainer flying boat built in the Soviet Union in the mid-1920s.
The Grigorovich M-19 was a reconnaissance flying boat designed by Grigorovich in the late 1910s. The M-19 was a Grigorovich M-9 modified to be of the same size as the Grigorovich M-15. Assembly of the prototype was started in 1918, but the aircraft was not completed.
