Re: Henschel HS-123
Hs-123 were operated by the 15th Sq of the ROCAF, mainly in the divebombing role against Japanese shipping on the Yangtze River in 1938. Chinese pilots and ground crew complained that the aircraft showed signs of having been previously used.
First combat involving Soviet Volunteer pilots in the 1st Volunteer Pursuit Group occurred on Nov. 22, 1937 near Nanking. G. M Prokofiev led I-16 to intercept an equal number of A5M from the JNAF 13th Kokutai. Each side lost one aircraft and its pilot. PO3c Kashimura, Kanichi shot down Lt. N N Nezhdanov who was killed. Prokofiev shot down PO3c Miyazaki, Koji who was also killed.
