Re: Russian use of Handley Page Hampdens

Hello Paul
thanks for the summary of the Hampden achievements from Morozov's book.
It is also my impression that Leesee was the only success of the VVS SF Hampdens even if according to Hans Jürgen WITTHÖFT’s Die deutsche Handelsflotte 1939 – 1945. Band II (1971) it was sunk by bombs. I forgot to mention that the map in the RAAF in WWII Ch11 War at Sea Jan-Sept 42 p. 296 shows also the search patterns of the Catalinas of the 210 Sqn from 11th to 18th Sept 42.
