Re: 659 IAP KOLDUNOV
I am not aware of any dedicated soviet night-fighter unit in the Budapest area. Maybe because the Axis night activity was so limited, it did not make it necessary. Po-2 biplane night-bombers and A-20 Boston daylight bombers equally were active in the night, but they were regular bombers, not spec. modified planes for pursue. Soviet searchlight and AAA units were very effective against the Axis night cargo-planes, so they did the job.
