Gimnastyorka itself is postwar issued.
Badge, order and shoulder boards looks original.

Still a nice tunic with buttons that I believe were originally intended to secure shoulder-boards. However, I have seen them widely used in period images as on your gymnasterka.

Also, these shoulder-boards are not easy to find anymore. Stars are the gilded post 1954 variant for technical branch of Air Force. The winged prop seems to be silvered so see of you can find a pair of silvered stars.

I like the salty Red Banner...

As this seems to be a kind of a reference thread i would like to add my ВВС/VVS Lieutenant Tunic.
