| Obverse description | The obverse features a relief depiction of a Soviet ground-attack aircraft (Ilyushin Il-2) in flight above a schematic wartime campaign map showing the operational route of the 4th Air Army from its formation at Vinnitsa on 22 June 1941 through key cities including Grozny, Kerch, Krasnodar, Mogilev, Minsk, Bialystok, Gdansk, and Berlin, to Neubrandenburg in May 1945. Two framed unit designations marked '4-VA' with dated milestones flank the map, and the curved legend along the upper rim reads 'ЗА НАШУ СОВЕТСКУЮ РОДИНУ!' |
