Re: Hans Ulrich Rudel at Kursk
John, I've had David Glantz's book on Operation "Mars" about the battle of Rzhev which was so dry that I thought I would never finish it. In Oct. there is a Russian translated book of Valeriy Zamulin's coming out called "Demolishing the Myth: The Tank Battle at Proklrovka, Kursk, July 1943" that is suppose to be good (one of three parts on the ground battle).
The following is from V. Gorbach's already mentioned book for the 08Jul43 around 10:30. "In the air large groups of German aircraft appeared, which began continuous attacks on the advancing units of the 2nd and 5th Guards Tank Corps. Soviet tankers described the type of German aircraft, which participated in the attacks as Ju 87 and Bf 110, armed with antitank guns. In reality the main role in restraining of the Soviet attack played the antitank crew forces of 4. and 8.(Pz)/SchG1, 4.(Pz)/SchG2, and also Pz.Jg.St/JG51."
