5 VA at Kursk.

Hallo all.

Could anyone please list the component units of 5 VA on 5 July 1943 ? This was the Air Army held in reserve by the Soviet High Command for the Kursk-Orel battle.

Did its units see any combat during the battle while part of 5 VA ? And what losses and victories (approximately) did they have, if any ?

Finally, were any units transferred to other Air Armies during the battle ?

Thanks in advance,

Martin Gleeson.

Hi Henry,

Thank you for that excellent link. I completely forgot about Pawel Burchard's website. It answers most of my questions.

Regards,

Martin.
