Re: Erich Hartmann vs. P-51

about Mr. Bernad second point, the aaa. thats indeed very important.

in my researches about kursk there seems to develope following conclusion.

if to compare german fighter claims with soviet losses you will come to bergstroms conlusion of 1:1,25 up to 1:1,33 overclaiming (kursk, p. 118). but if you resarch the (strong) german aaa, you will have an rate of 1:3 overclaiming.

btw if you look at the soviet side, this rate is much higher - around 1:8 exaggeration.
