Korea: Searching information PLAAF 1952-1953
Searching information about the activities of the PLAAF in Korea years 1952 and 1953 to the end of the war. I have the book of Zang and some other informations but are always quite limited.
For example:
25 Jan 1952: eight PLAAF MiGs reported as shot down(seven in other publications).
This MiGs were from wich FAD, wich regiments? By the date must be 4th FAD, 15th or 6th FAD. Number of Pilots ejecting or KIA? Victory claims? Area? , etc, etc.
16 MiGs reported as destroyed between March 3 and March 10, 1952.
Other four, March 16, 1952.
Three MiGs, Jun 15, 1952.
Six MiGs between Aug 4 an 5, 1952
Nine MiGs, Between Aug 7 and 9, 1952
Six MiGs, August 29 and 30, 1952
Six MiGs, November 17, 1952
Five MiGs, November 18 and 20, 1952
19 MiGs between Dec 2 and 16, 1952
Two MiGs more, Dec 25, 1952
20 MiGs between Jan 17 and 24, 1953
Actual list of PLAAF MiG losses between May and Jun 1953 are catastrofic. One version say 38 MiGs and 17 pilots KIA, other 94(!) with a unknown number of pilots lost.
etc, etc, etc
Not in 1952, but in 1951. The 14th FAD 40th Regiment in his first combat sortie with the escort of the 3th FAD suffer heavy losses: seven MiG shot down and two damaged. Losses of he 3th FAD in this combat? Claims?
All PLAAF MiGs activities information about this periode, welcome.
Many thanks.
