Re: 152 IAP late P-40 Warhaws with red star on white circle insignia Aug 1944
Along with 152 IAP the 19 GvIAP and 20 KShAP also flew missions in the area with P-39 Aerocobras. Since the soviets frequently misidentified the Bf 109s and the Fw 190s, the Axis forces could also misidentify the P-39s and the P-40s.
August 9, 1944: Between 13:30 and 16:48 2x2 P-39 Aerocobras flew recce. missions between 2000-600 m. Between 8:15-9:15, 6 P-39s, led by Lt. Kochegin flew 6 hrs 05 mins. total time mission to Alakurtti airfield. Encounter with 2 Fw 190s Between 12;39-13:25 3 P-39s flew mission to Kandalatskii? - 3 hrs, 10 mins. Between 11?:23-17:45 4 (2x2) P-39s flew recce. mission to ~Kectenckovo? 20 KShAP flew missions eg. with: 10:40-11:03 - 2 P-39s 14:57-16:03 - 2 P-39s. Gabor |
