Re: Il-2 pilots with 10 or more aerial kills
I do not know where that article took that information from. The 18 TK report clearly says that only 4 SU-85s burned out (not 5) and a 5th one was KOd. Since the air strike is mentioned specifically for 12 T-34s and for all five ISU-122s, but nothing for the SU-85s, I think that none of the SU-85s was lost in an air strike. (Otherwise it would have been mentioned in the report as well.)
