Re: Luftwaffe losses in raids on Kursk - John Beaman
I apologise for my unintentional abrasiveness. Any information is greatly appreciated.
As regards the overclaiming, it was probably caused by Soviet fighter pilots being unaccustomed to air combat involving large numbers of aircraft, a phenomenon which was also in evidence over the Kuban. In fact, my impression is that overclaiming by a factor of 10 to 1 or higher was the norm for Soviet fighters intercepting daylight Luftwaffe bomber raids. Jack
