Re: The Il-2 role in Eastern Front
Well, it seems logical. Most of the losses due to enemy fighters occured when single seaters were in use. Later on, when two seaters entered service, number of victories dropped in favour of Flak. The latter was not particularly dangerous for gunners, it was just deadly dangerous for all Hunchbacks. Unfortunatelly, statistics are not enough detailed to make a clear proportion but for 1942 it was 169/203/1290 (fighters/Flak/missing) and for 1945 369/1048/266.
By the way, I cannot find any reference to Il-2T. What it was supposed to be?
