Hi Nikita,

Thanks for your reply. Alas I do not gave more details on this incident. Only the info I already stated. It is not much to go on. Info is from Leutnant Walter Bohatsch of 5./JG 3 - post war info. He did state a Yak 9; he might be wrong. I could not find any Yak 9 claim during their time in Kuban area, so I gather that this info from his memory has faded. Perhaps you might be able to identify the Russian aircraft and more details.

Best regards,
Rob
