Re: 359 FG dogfight with Russian fighters?
No Gruppe of JG52 was based that far North to reach Küstrin. I&III were in the area of todays Czech Rep. / South Poland, and II/JG52 was in Hungary.
In this Hartmann-book is a report about an attack on VVS-bombers+escort in todays Czech Rep., which ended in a DF between USAAF & VVS-fighters. So, I don't think there is any connection.
How many AC did the US loose in this incident you describe? 9 losses on soviet side would be a lot!
