Re: Soviet victory claims before 22 VI 1941?

Hello
I dig a bit deeper and it seems that after all 53 is the right figure for FAF losses during combat ops. 34 to fighters, 4 to Soviet AA, 1 to bombing, 6 missing but IIRC for most there are a suitable Soviet fighter pilot claim, 1 to Finnish AA, 2 to technical problems, 5 because of bad weather. 8 other were also lost: 3 during training flights, 4 during delivery flights and 1 destroyed by Finns when they withdrew behind new borders. Plus the 4/2 lost by F 19.
