Looks like Yak 3 or Yak 15 for me, I can't see propeller so I assumed it's Yak 15. But it didn't make sense since they are Russian aircraft while we have German and Italian tanks here...

It has an italian flag on the tail, i think it's an G.55.

Neither. Yak-3 has a teardrop canopy, and Yak-15 has a round nozzle of course because it's a jet. The closest match would be the M.C.205, judging by the razorback canopy, the streamline supercharger, and the scheme it's representing.

Planes attacking tanks of opposing sides of WW2 don't make sense for you?

I think he meant that Italian tanks were not used in Eastern Front. Then again, we have high school girls in a King Tiger. Historical reenactment be damned.

Actually, some of them were used in that theater of operations. The CSIR and the ARMIR had in their organic a number (no more than 60 or 70 at any given time) of light tanks and tank destroyers, such as the L3/33, the L6/40 and the Semovente da 47/32.
Therefore, Anchovy's tankette would make sense in such an environment, from an historical point of view.

Huh I did not know that. I only know they sent some units there, but didn't know they sent tanks as well.
Seriously, though, I'd say that jet fighters, although acceptable from a historical point of view, would be quite a rare sight. Not to mention that these boys would need dough to get in the air as much as the girls need it to get out in the battlefield, and I think a jet would be more expensive and time-consuming than a propeller-driven plane.

Considering as those planes are going on an obvious strafing run from the front, where the girls would have had plenty of time to react, them STILL STICKING THEIR HEADS OUT OF THE TANK WHILE BEING RIDDLED WITH MACHINE GUN BULLETS sure doesn't make sense to me.
Seriously, does nobody involved with GuP understand bullets can hurt people?!

The show itself is pretty careless about this subject. There are some instances in which the MGs are used, regardless as to wheter somebody might catch one of the bullets.

Also crashing tanks into things at speeds, flipping them over, crashing down embankments, and a dozen other things that are basically car wrecks in vehicles lacking any form of safety restrains and filled with hard metal objects to brain yourself on.

That's hand waved by the existence of that mysterious carbon coating thing, which only the Maus' weight can supposedly overcome.
I was talking about things that you fire knowing that somebody might have her head sticking out, and therefore it might receive it right above the eyes.

Actually, it's worse than that - there are instances in Ribbon no Musha where a tank had someone leaning out of a tank, it was hit, had the whole tank flip over on top of where that person was one frame ago, and yet we never see an injured girl. Those girls should be snapped in half like toothpicks, we just never see the funerals.

Armor doesn't protect you from a crash, crash injuries are mainly a result of deceleration. Most obviously if you're unrestrained the vehicle will stop and you'll keep moving... until you hit the interior of said vehicle anyway, then you'll decelerate REAL fast and quite possible fatally. Restrains protect you by decelerating you along with the vehicle during a wreck vehicle and modern vehicles further protect you by crumpling on impact to lengthen the duration of deceleration and by extension reduce the force.
Well tanks lack any form of restraints (for several reasons) and even 'weak' ones are incredibly rigid by most standards and will deform little in a high speed collision. They're rolling death traps in any form of motor vehicle accident above a walking pace really. The only saving grace in some instances is that the tank is so heavy and so rigid that it can simply plow through things that would wreck a car, so it may not actually decelerate that much, but it's still not going to be fun more then likely.
