Korea-MiG-15 and the other side of the history

[knusel]

Good evening Gentlemen,

I'm interested in Korean War MiGs, too.
Did Stepan Naumenko fly a MiG-15 or a Mig-15bis when he scored his kills ?

Have a good start in the weekend,

Good morning Gentlemen,

Did Kim Gi-Ok fly a MiG-15 or a Mig-15bis when he scored his kills ?

The Osprey book on Mig-15 ace of the Korean war has Naumenko's unit 29 GvIAP getting MIg-15bis before it saw combat in Korea.

As for Ok I don't know. the claim list is interesting has anyone matched them up with US and Allied losses? Trying to match up claims and losses for the Communist side is a problem since you have Russian, PRC and North Korean fighters and AAA units

Good evening James,

in the meantime I too think that Naumenko flew the MiG-15bis.

The most promising candidate for a MiG-15 top ace seems to be Zhao Baotong who likely scored at least 5 of his 7+2sh in the earlier type.
Does anybody know how many pilots shared in his 2 shared kills ?

Cheers,

Michael
