Re: 35 ShAP-KBF losses on 21 June 1944
There was another VVS-KBF Il-2 loss on 21.06.44 though maybe not referring to this combat:
ml.Lt. N.A. Vargin and ml.serzhant V.V. Gubin of 8 ShAP both KIA.
Other Il-2 losses over Karelia were (incomplete):
On 21.06.44 Ml.Lt. Mikhayl Dmitriyevich Drozdov (st. pilot) & St.Serzh. Grigoriy Filippovich Sotnev (air gunner) of 17 GShAP (257 SAD, 7 VA) were s/d by enemy flak and KIA.
On 21.06.44 St.Lt. Aleksandr Semenovich Polikko (AE leader), Ml.Lt. Mikhayl Aleksandrovich Pugachev (flight leader), St.Serzh. Pavel Dmitriyevich Ivanov (air gunner) and Ml.Serzh. Semen Egorovich Zuvarev (air gunner) of 694 ShAP (257 SAD, 7 VA) FTR from a combat mission - MIA.
II./JG.54 claimed 1 more Il-2 at 08.22h and 7 more in a combat between 12.50-13.50h. Finnish Bf.109 pilots Luutn Lumme (Llv 24) 1 Il-2 over Papula between 08.40-09.30h, Maj Luukkanen and Luutn Karhila 1 Il-2 each between over Tali and Tienhaara 12.55-14.10h.
Has someone more Il-2 losses of 7 VA or VVS-KBF?
