I rechecked the times of the dogfight and the VVS time is 6:00-07:00 (Moscow) the 10IAP claimed 4 Bf-109's for one I-16 (Loboda). The 10IAP was operating out of Shavli, Lithuania (Now Siauliai) (to the German's at the time it was Schaulen. The Luftwaffe units operating in that area were II/JG53, I/JG54 and 8/JG54. No claims for a I-16 by them. No losses but Brock which turns out to be collision with II/JG54. There was one other forced landing at Altenburg with 50% damage on a 1/JG54 Bf-109F (Wkr. 12 638) with no pilot name. Could some one give me the meaning of "Spritmangel" as tranlators are coming up blank.
