Re: JG 52 versus Soviet VVC May 20,44
Andrew
Thanks for the info, indeed this is more or less in line with my material and addressing closer my questions . Few remarks , the JU-87 pilot KIA was with II./SG-2 eventhough the group was resting .As into JG-54 I am puzzled regarding the records , because according my stuff only IV./JG54 was in Romania unit which arrived in April with only few operational aircrafts and was stationed at Mamaia at the Black Sea . Alone JG 52 claimed 18 victories out of which a Boston and a IL-2 though not listed by the Russians neither I can locate them. 5./SG 10 claimed a IL-2 and Stab III./SG 2 claimed a P-39 I could not locate them either . Most of the Rumanian fighters were dispatched to defend Romania against 15th AF though I suspect that some of their assets may have been as well in the area. I can't find any of thier losses on that day. The Russian operational records also show 4 German HE-111's shot down out of which one rammed by a Soviet fighter, which again was as misleading as rest of their fighter claims. The Soviets also lost two HSU recepients , a woman pilot , in total 12 pilots against one Luftwaffe JU-87 loss . The area of operation was Grigoriopol though not far from there at Cosnita, Dubosari ,Pererita and Serpeni intensive fights were recorded.
