Looking for some answers for the 15 IAP (4VA)
What degree of damage would require a Yak-7B to be sent to PARM 1?
On the 08 May 1943 west of N. Bakanskaya the 15 IAP at 18:00 (Moscow) ran across 20 "Caproni" (what was described in the report). In Mikhail Bykov's book on Soviet aces the aircraft is listed as Henschel Hs 123. St. Lt. Aleksandr Mikhaylovich Bastrikov claimed three shot down. Ml. Lt. Alesandr Vasil'evich Losev claimed one. Ml.Lt. Gorushev claimed one shot down. So how many Hs 123 are listed lost this day? 17:48 (M) Lt Semen Nararovich Samoylov claimed a Bf 109 between the Crimea and Moldovanskaya. The pilot bailed out. It's not from JG 3 so maybe JG 52? It was Samoylov's second victory of the day. His first was a Ju 87 at around 14:00 (Moscow). |
