Re: Forgotten Heroes - Aces of the Royal Hungarian Air Force in WWII (second revised, expanded edition)

Hi Knusel, I found a good statistics regarding Hungarian air victory claims in a book by Punka, Sárhidai and Zsák, from 2017.
The overall total is actually way more than 500, as follows:
Fighter and fighter bomber claims: 578 (+44)
Long-range recce crews: 33 (+1)
Short-range recce crews: 15
"Fast bomber" crews: 13
Bombers: 14
Dive bombers: 6
Shot down from ground by air force personnel: 6
--------------------------------------------------------
Total: 665 (+45) = 710 victory *claims*
