Trophies of Air Battles, 1941-1945

[edwest]

This is a Russian language publication that appears to carry a 2002 copyright and ISBN 5-901266-01-3. All or a few of the photos may be online, I'm not certain (but at least several are). It is 80 pages in a magazine style format with photos on semi-gloss paper with English captions. It also includes captured German aircraft in Russian markings and some Japanese types, including a Bf-108 in Japanese markings.

German aircraft of interest include:

Bf-110 coded SP+GD
A number of Fw-190s at Berlin Tempelhof, with the following W.Nrs: 439416, 737344, 961945, 933221 and 999790.
Bf-109G-10 with W.Nr 461174 and another with 510959.
There are four pages of color profiles, including a few Japanese aircraft and a Romanian Ju-87.
Bf-110 coded 6M+CL
Go-242 coded + TE UL

There are tables that appear to show loss lists for particular German aircraft types, including shoot downs, probable and landed intact (?).

I am not one to encourage anyone to spend their hard-earned money but I thought, if people don't know it exists, why not tell them?

I have a copy of this publication.

It's a paperbound book, all pictorial,78 pages, over 100 photos with several tables all in Russian. The pictures have English/Russian captions.
