KG 1 and 3 losses 07 Aug 42
In the area of Rzhev on 07 Aug 1942 was operating II/KG 1, I/KG 3 and III/KG 3 all of which were equipped with Ju 88s. Were there any losses and damaged Ju 88 from these units from Soviet fighter attacks?
The other known units operating in that area were I and II/KG 53 which were equipped with He 111 according to "Bomber Units of the Luftwaffe 1933-1945" by de Zeng and Stankey. |
