Re: Walter Wolfrum and the mythical YAK-3
Hi Guys
In Elmar Arensmeyer flugbuch he mentions Kingcobra's threel times:-
14th April 1945 0900-0957 hrs combat with four Jak-3's and two Kingcobrsa.
20th April 1945 1345-1445 hrs combat with sixty Jak-3's and thirty Kingcobra's. Then during this combat witness to Heinz Marquardt's 113th-114th claims..... two Kingcobra's.
On 18th March 1945 he was in combat with Airacobra's, so he makes the distinction between Airacobra and Kingcobra, and mentions them as such not P-39 and P-63.
So were they Kingcobra's, or misidentified Airacobra's?, and if no Kingcobra's were used against the Luftwaffe, then why would he know about them?
A most intriguing riddle.
Kind Regards
Johannes
