Thanks

Re: Hungarian Fighters claims and losses
 
There are no such comprehensive lists published.
There are snippets of information included in some books, mainly in Hungarian.
Also, several historians - including myself - attempt to reconstruct these victory/loss lists (which will never be complete, however).

P.S. We would all appreciate if you would share your name with us, as anonymous postings are usually (and rightfully) ignored.

My Hungarian aces book contains the majority of the Hungarian claims (close to 400 confirmed and additionally 70+ unconfirmed claims in details, many of them unknown earlier) The book is in Hungrian language (it has been sold out)
I'll upload many materials to my new homepage about the RHAF (in Hunngarian and English both) But no sooner, than 2010.

A Hungarian published source lists a total of 570 confirmed or documented, 17 probable, or uncertain, 53 with no witness or surviving supporting documents, 18 unconfirmed and 16 cancelled air victories. Obviously, not all these claims were filed while in defence of Hungary.

As for the MKHL losses, as I wrote earlier, there is no single published source available.
