Re: Air War Above Rzhev - Zubtsov
Mars, sorry I can’t provide a link as Bob has not got back with me yet. It is the same JG 54 website as the Air War Above Rzhev- Zubtsov was put up on but just not up as of yet. I will say there are a number of entry for Soviet losses by JG 54 that have no recorded matching claims, so maybe denied in some Flugbuch or just lost with Luftwaffe records. I will provide an example of what is written.
22 March 1942
In the morning hours the U-2 from 662 NBAP flown by Serzhant Petr Severov was listed as missing in action in the area of Novoselitsy.
From the German side in the records of III./JG 54 a possible match is found. Leutnant Friedrich Rupp of 7./JG 54 claimed a RZ (11) at 06:12 at Nowosswlitsci (Novoselitsy).
I put together as many claims as I could possibly find touching on a few of Nowotny, Hans Phillips among the worst claimers. A surprise for me was Franz Eckerle in his last claims of his life. So until Bob gets back with me it’s out of my hands.
