Re: Soviet aviation fuel: More bang for the buck or the ruble?

Hello Thomas
I'm very busy, on the LL fuel and oil deliveries, see Altea's answers, but IIRC the 2 620 000 metric tons is the amount of all oil products, and remember also the 6 refineries delivered by USA.
On M-82FN Forsage (1st gear only): 2500 rpm 1180+-10 mm Hg, the boost probably is the key., its close to the max boost allowed to Bristol Hercules radials with 100oct, 100/130 grade fuel (+8.25).
On the P-39 IAD, IIRC the question was the time needed to get the 100 oct fuel to the airfields used by the division.
