Re: JG 54 loss on 28 Jun 1944
Hello
IMHO Vesa’s combat was one and half hours too early, 09:00 – 10.00 Finnish time (10:00 – 11:00 Moscow time). Kasimov’s formation probably fought against a later patrol of the HLeLv 24, 5 Bf 109Gs taking off 11:00 – 11:05 and fought against Il-2s and Yak-9s, all 5 returned to their base 11:50 – 12:10. Leader’s plane was hit but by a Yak according to his combat report (Suhonen MT-238). The damage was light because the plane was flown next time on the same day, another sortie taking off 14:00. Finns claimed 4 Il-2s and one Yak-9. Is there any info on possible Soviet losses in your source? Juha |
