Re: the Highest Scored Soviet P-40 and MIG Pilot in WWII?
You should buy "Soviet Lend-Lease Fighter Aces of WW2" by G. Mellinger (Osprey #74).
It's difficult to assess because many aces scored while flying different types of aircraft. However, according to the author it seems that the P-40 top ace was Lt.Col. Stepan Novichkov, 29 victories including 19 while flying a P-40K with 436 IAP.
