The best Russian bomber?

Nope.

If you limit the category to best Dive Bomber I might agree but as a light bomber the Mossie and the Invader were better.

Mosquito was much faster and carried twice as much bombs, it (bomber variant) lacked any armament but its speed made defensive armament unnecessary.

A-26 was marginally slower (<5 mph), but carried 3x the bombload as well 3x as many offensive guns. Its defensive armament was also vastly superior.

I agree with this assessment 100%
