Re: Russian airfiled name used by the Luftwaffe
Here is what I have so far:
Tschugujew (e. Chuguyev) - S Russia (37 km SE Kharkov); Zfp.; ZNr. 52; Mq. Z50602
General: airfield in E Ukraine 37 km SE of Kharkov (Kharkiv) and 2.5 km WSW of Chuguyev. Very large with grass surface and numerous buildings. Lw. (JG 3) began occupying on 8 May 42 and much construction commenced.
Air Units:
Station Commands: Fl.H.Kdtr. E 62/XI (Feb 43); Platzkdo. of Fl.H.Kdtr. E 61/XI (Kharkov/North) (Jun 43).
Station Units (on various dates): Lw.-Bau-Btl. 5/XVII (May 42).
"Chuguyev" is the generally accepted English language spelling. It may now be different in Ukrainian, and certainly different when Cyrillic is used.
