Re: Designation of VVS Regiment
DD definition is the one I have gone with.
For example, if there was a Bomber Aviation Regiment, ADD, I will type in "Long-Range Operations Bomber Aviation Regiment"
If it was just DD for an Aviation Regiment, that would be "Long-Range Operations Aviation Regiment".
The problem is sometimes even though it was part of Long Range Aviation (ADD, or DD), the unit did not have the designator in its official title. The same could be said for the PVO Fighter Regiments also. I have confirmed this through the official listing of the units and not one Fighter Regiment or Division has "PVO" in its designation (this is from the Operational Army listing). Boevoi Sostav Sovetskii Armii does have them as PVO, probably to differientiate them from the other Aviation Divisions.
