Re: Il-2 pilots with 10 or more aerial kills

Perhaps. But this type of research is much more difficult than air vs. air claims. Not because the losses are unknown, but because it is very difficult to match the losses to claimers. Statistically yes, but doing justice among all of the claimers: no. The other thing is that when a plane was shot down, it was a 100% loss, - 100% victory. But a tank could be KOd, disabled, hit, repaired several times before a full write off. Now what? It is not easy. So I can imagine a general book dealing with ground attack warfare, but not to the level of individuals' ground victory lists.
