Hi, Remi

The summary loss records are complete to the extent that they list every record that was reported to the GenQu6Abt from the outbreak of Barbarossa 22.6.1941, through January 1945.

Thus in theory (and not taking into account the errors as discussed in another current thread) these are complete for 1944.

As you can imagine the amount of data is immense!! I have started in one end (with all units listed under the Jagd umbrella), these are now complete in the database.

I have also entered several other units, and we are now working on the Schlacht lists.

For the Jagd units, the number of aircraft listed in these lists for the period 01.1944 through 01.1945 are:

15603... averaging about 40 fighters lost and damaged per day

BTW, if anyone is interested this data I have made queries that list aircraft lost on a daily basis from 22.06.1941 through to the last reporting day which is included (31.01.1945).

Please note that there will be a few aircraft not included in the above numbers, namely aircraft reported AFTER 31.01.1945. I have not done analysis on this with regards to numbers, but I have entered all losses from the reports from the records up to 01.04.1945, and there are quite a few in addition to the number mentioned above.

So, to sum up - there are in the vicinity of 16000 losses for this period, for the fighter units alone.

But just join the project Remi, and see for yourself

Regards,
Andreas B
