Soviet Hurricanes - where, when, ...?
The VVS got nearly 3.000 Hurries starting in late 1941.
I roughly assume the arrivals like this: 1941 = 250 1942 = 1500 1943 = 1000 Does anyone have better data? Especially in 1942, the VVS needed (and used!) every combat A/C they got, so I think also all Hurries were pout into action. A lot was used (& lost) near Murmansk. Some data from Luftwaffe claims: - 261 altogether - nearly all from JG77/JG5, means Murmansk - 43 claims in June-September 1942 some by JG3 & JG52, means during the german summeroffensive in the South. Now to my questions: - Where were all these Hurricanes used? - Which units? - from when up to which date, to which extent, etc. pp. That's it already |
