Á, megint találtam egy jó kis oldalt: VVS Research Page
Ami kifejezetten érdekes részek, és más oldalakon nem nagyon találni, azok a Pilots menü alatti interjúk, szerencsére angol nyelven.
Az ő veteránjaiknak is vannak érdekes történeteik, és kb ugyanazt mondják mint a mi veteránjaink, csak a másik szemszögből
pl.:
Interview with Ivan Lukich Zvyagin, pilot from 43 IAP.
...
Q: Could you describe ordinary dogfight?
I can’t understand the question… There were no dogfights. You saw an airplane, approach it from behind, attack and leave. Bombers were not advised to attack from straight behind – the gunner would get you. Better attack it from behind-low, with an angle 20-30 degrees. Take lead and fire your weapons.
On the other hand over Kuban it was always cloudy, enemy would suddenly appear out of the clouds in front of you… And you just press the button… Single shot. I do not remember a single case when there would be a “dogfight”. Speed and maneuver is everything!
Q: Basically You see, you approach, you shoot and leave?
Yes, maximum 30 seconds. The attack itself lasts no more than 10 seconds. Still, you have to identify the plane, and this can only be done at close distance. Over frontline there always someone shouting over radio “Messer on your tail!” “Let’s do them!”. There were a lot of planes from both sides…
Q: in your personal opinion, what was our best fighter?
We had I-16 and I-153 from the start. They were by far too slow. Then Yaks and Las appeared. Which one was better… Speed was the same… Except that in La pilot was better covered from the front…
Q: Speaking of Yaks, which modification was easier for flying?
All the same…
Q: The one with 45mm cannon wasn’t heavier?
No, the engine was 1700 hp. Maybe speed was lower by 5 km\h. But when you are flying you cruise with 300-320 km\h, otherwise you would burn the fuel too soon. At maximum speed you would have empty tanks in 30-40 minutes, or you can fly slower, but for 2 hours.
...na, nem másolom be az egészet, nem is férne ki, olvassatok bele. Qrvajó.
