Nikita,

why especially on these planes? What do you knew about them?

[Nikita Egorov]

All were captured in Stalingrad region after the battle, but I perhaps overlooked them in my GQ copy.

Thanks Gentlemen,

Obviously something is wrong with my Ctrl+F function

I solved the problem with Bf-109F-4 w.n. 13355, as the observers pointed the shield with two crossed swords as the emblem, I suppose it was w.n. 13365, reported lost on August 4, 1942 with 25% of damage.

However, many of the questions remained, especially interesting case with Bf-110E-2 w.n. 3938 that had code L2+KP and wore seventeen abschussbalken on the tailfin.
