Re: Top MiG aces and scorers by type

I have found no record officially of any MiG-1 making a victory claim in Timin's book he has:
MiG-1 in the Baltic Special Military District 22 June 1941:
21 IAP-1
10 IAP-1
241 SHAP-1
15 IAP-4
31 IAP -24

page 241 10 IAP a Squadron Commander attacking a German recon plane but the guns jammed
page 342 has the 31 IAP the morning of 25 June 41 with 10 MiG 1/3s and 1 I-16

in the color profiles the book has 2 MiG-1s of the 31 IAP captured near Riga.

Re: Top MiG aces and scorers by type

Good evening James,

thanks for your info which implies that 31. IAP is the most promising unit for finding a MiG-1 scorer.

Have a nice Thursday,

Michael

Lorenzo Alberto Pérez Pérez replaces Gaurav Chiber as MiG-29 top scorer (2 kills), see also my MiG-29 thread:
