Re: Hartmann: claims vs. victories
Exactly. Just because you have a flat tire you do not buy a new car considering that you've lost your old one. Fixing a belly landed, durable Soviet plane was only a routine maintenance practice that took a little longer than simply re-fueling a plane before a mission. We know cases where Hartmann's 'victim' was back in the air within 24 hrs. Then we can guess why the Russians could reach Berlin despite of those hundreds of German aerial victories. The Germans won the war on papers and in statistics, but they lost it in reality.
