Re: MiG-15 with dragon motif
According to FEAF GO 296 Thompson was credited with a confirmed victory at 1425H near Imsan-dong. The location is close to the Suphun Reservoir where the Soviets 518th IAP (Fighter Regiment) lost two MiG-15's - both from the 2nd Eskardilya.
One of the Soviet pilots, Senior Lieutenant Alexey Rybakov, Chief Pilot of the regiment, was killed. The other, Captain E. I. Stadnik ejected and survived. Stadnik was the wingman of WWII ace Maj. Vasily Kazakov, Deputy Commander of the 2nd Eskadrilya of the 518th IAP. The MiG-15bis of the 518th IAP were camouflaged with green and tan stripes and the bort numbers were red.
