The report on the first stage of 2nd ToD: 3-4 October 1942

 

After exhausting the September fighting and a forced pause, used to restore reserves, already the 3rd October 1942 the battle began again at dawn when the opposing sides bombers rose into the air.

 

Luftwaffe hit Railroad station and warehouse in sector A. Ju88 suffered heavy losses over Zaplavnoe r/r station from the AAA, however, were able to achieve considerable success, destroying 3/4 of a target. Also, over Stalinskij frontline depot, Luftwaffe executed a brilliant attack: Ju87 attacked it in a dive, followed by Bf110.

 

VVS said raids on the Railroad station and warehouse in sector C, and despite the large number of enemy fighters, did not encounter any resistance: combat losses was minimal, but the effectiveness of the bombing was ground low.

 

On the morning of October 4 Wehrmacht tried to break through the defense lines in the sector B in a blow to the Zetas, but the deployment of German tanks under Erik was just seen by red fighter scouts, and in response to the command of the Reds launched a fighter combat air patrol for the Zetas. Reflecting attempt of Luftwaffe to win air supremacy in this sector of the front, the VVS pulled all fighter forces in Sector B. Skillfully maneuvering units, Soviet fighters were able to maintain a permanent presence of fighters over the sector of defense lines and prevent the few Luftwaffe attack aircraft to clear the way for the German tanks. The result was a ceaseless battle for air supremacy over the Zetas, the intensity of which petered out in the afternoon, when it became clear that the Germans attack failed. Soviet fighters won this fray, and were able to shot down 17 german aircrafts, losing only 7 of their own. Heavy Luftwaffe losses can be explained by the fact that on the eve of the offensive there was carried out a football championship, which met the Luftwaffe fighter command and Regia Aeronautica. For this reason, a fighter cover of  offencive operation was entrusted to the pilots of the newly arrived Fighter Group, which had no combat experience in this particular theater of war.

 

Loss of the sides to the materiel on the results of fight on 3 and 4 October:

Red Army Air Force - 24 units. resources

Luftwaffe - 59 units. resources

 

Statistiks:

Friday mission, 1.07.16

Saturday mission, 2.07.16

 

Top pilots:

 

Best fighter pilot:

=FPS=Cutlass, La-5 pilot, with 5 airkills.

 

Best assault pilot:

I./ZG1_Krokodilor, Bf110E pilot, with 5 ground targets destroyed.

 

Best bomber pilot:

LLv32_Kanttori, with 21 ground targets destroyed.

Report on the second stage: October 9-10, 1942

 

Owing to various reasons both sides had deficiency of pilots, because of what active actions were practically rare: incidental skirmishes in air, an exchange of bombing attacks - all this what there were enough forces for.

 

On October 9, 1942, the exchange of blows of bombers to a railroad stations and warehouses in sector A has taken place. Also, Luftwqaffe was able to attack warehouses of sector B. Because of shortage of pilots, as well as week before, the transport aviation did not perform flights. Fighting losses were practically minimal.

 

On October 10, 1942,  having the intelligence data on lack of preparation of attacks by Germans, VVS RKKA have decided to attack a strong point in N of the front, at Lyapichev. But even having some advantage in number, could not clear the sky from the German fighters, - weak training of red falcons and the translation under Stalingrad of experienced German experts has affected. VVS RKKA have suffered serious losses, without having achieved success. Because of that, High Command of VVS RKKA has refused further attempted breakthroughs of the German defense not to lose attack planes. Germans have skillfully seized the moment and have bombed the Soviet warehouses in sector A.

 

Losses of materiel following the results of fights on October 9 and 10:

RKKA Air Force - 37 units of resources

Luftwaffe - 26 units of resources

This.

[=J13=Serenity]

Hello
 
As a commander of Red Side I would like to make a small report.
 
During combat (15-16 of July) Soviet forces managed to damage heavily German railroad station and Capture sector A.
 
Night mission for Soviets consisted of 2 raids on Railroad station made by 1 group of 5 Pe 2 from level flight and 2 Yaks as escort.
First time we met 4 enemy fighters which engaged our escort, damaged one Yak and vanished. 
All our airplanes returned to base except for 2 crashed on a landing.
 
Germans managed to destroy our warehouses in B and damaged other sectors.
 
Day mission was a lot more tense.
We did not plan any attacks, only defensive patrols.
But at the last minute before the start we received a reinforcements consisting of 10+ fighters and IL 2 pilots.
To confuse the enemy our first attack was on sector C. During that attack one of our groups engaged enemy fighters over Zety and retreated. 
Attack group destroyed all AA in Abganerovo and bombed second defensive line (which was not even deployed) instead of  1st defensive line by mistake.
 
Second sortie had  a goal of destroying enemy defensive line in sector A.
3 Dive bombers destroyed most of AA and then group of IL 2 annihilated the rest.
 
The last flight was to protect our tanks and ensure their safety all the way to Lyapichev. 
2 Pe 2 bombed the rest of AA, Fighters were patroling everywhere and IL 2 "stayed hidden in the forest" in case second defensive line gets deployed.
 
There were some tense moments, like Bf 110 being spotted by fighters when our tanks where crossing the bridge...
At the end 2 Yaks found 4 Bf 109, damaged two of them and returned to base.
 

 
Yes, German Fighters shot down a lot of soviet fighters (some of our fighters pilots never check their six), but did nothing to stop ground attack airplanes.
Flying on 7000m must be fun, but is pointless when all action is near the ground. But its definitely safe thought. 
Keep flying this way and Soviets will win the whole campaign very soon...
 


 
                Sector A is OURS!!!!

Some information about Red/Blue side casualties

[707shap_Srbin]

Ok, After Action report of  the blue side.

 

Before the start of the battle Luftwaffe had only  3 resource points, which is insufficient for the deployment of tank attack.

It was decided to defend the sector A, and deploy Bf110’s as fast bombers on raids against enemy warehouses to weak VVS as much as possible.

 

For Saturday mission Luftwaffe had very few pilots  - a rotte of Czechs, schwarm of Germans in the 109, three Bf110 and a Heinkel 111.

Heinkel was put in free hunt on enemy supply depots, he attacked them during the whole mission by making two long departure. It was never  intercepted.

 Czechs  were sent  to patrol in the sector A, Sector B covered by the Germans.  Bf110 made fast hit-n-run  raid on the sector C, which they bombed without loss. They were successful with destroying some Depots. 

After the attack, I received a message about the attack of our  C sector . Nearest fighters were called,  they  came and cleared the air. AS it was thought like an attack, Bf110 received command to verify the presence of the enemy's ground activity. But, unfortunately, at the moment of approach Bf110 jumped right on the line of defense, and literally within seconds all three were shot down by well-concentrated fire of anti-aircraft guns. Soviet AAA crews opened their score, and this was only a beginning of a mess.

 

 Fighters went to patrol the A and B, one-tens  - took off and went to a randezvois  point in center of the front. 

At this point, hell broke loose  on the first defence line in sector  A, Lyapichev town.  While waiting a clear space for attack, Bf110 were waiting near low. It was time to fighters again. At first, pair of Czechs fought alone, reporting on the top pair + to 5 soviet planes below.  Germans were called, and they came after a short battle reported that knocked down all who could, and the rest was expelled from the area. One-tens approached and began search  for tanks. 1stCL/Werner do the same. No trace of Tanks! After reviewing each square meter, it was decided that the Reds have conceived feint. Bf110 were diverted to attack the warehouses in sector A (Stalinskij), with which they do well – there were 3 depots destroyed. At the exit of the attack, anti-aircraft guns shot down one of Wasp-nosed Bf110’s – Grendel went down in flames. Ser and Kroko moved north, and in the time when past  over defence line in the sector A, they DISCOVERED tanks. At this point, anti-aircraft guns opened fire, tore the rudder on the aircraft of Ser, and shot off the wing of second Wasp-pilot, Krokodilor. Ser, with a broken tail and a smoking  engine shot dead,  was able to hold on home and sit it down, saving the aircraft for further operations.

 

Meanwhile, Krokodilor delievered new aircraft from the rear, and Zerstorer rotte  started again. At this point, fighters finished refuel and rearm, took off and were running wild to sector A, wich was under massive attack of red steamroller – Yaks, La-5s, Il-2 and Pe-2s – all air fleet was pounding poor defences.

 

Czechs were the first into action, reported about a lot of Soviets in the air high and low. Veri difficult fight started.  Then came a rotte of  JG4. At this point, Bf110’s came up too close and were jumped by all the horde. Furious battle followed, and, backuped by Bf109’s, one-tens were able to not only to survive, but even shot down one of La-5! And all this with pair of SC250 still onboard   Regrouped, they turned on the tanks, but at this point the red tanks entered town and captured Lyapichev. What a bad luck!

 

In general, good luck again was on the red side – on Friday,  a group of Pe-2, miraculously slipped between 7 (!!!) fighters that went towards incoming bombers.  I./JG1 did job well, separating fighter escort from Pe-2’s, but two groups of Luftwaffe fighters were not able to find soviet bombers, and were punished, having critically important Raiload Station Surovikino wiped out completely. Only thanks to this attack, the blue could not attack with tanks  on Saturday.

 

Then, on Saturday, it was twice when Bf110s were murdered by  anti-aircraft guns at the wrong time, accidentally jumped on them at low altitude.  Bad luck!

 

The score on the battles in the air 14: 0. But we lost A sector totally, and will not be able to get it back. On the good side, we put a hard strike on VVS warehouses, making  Soviet resource income to a minimum.

 But no way!  We're not giving up. Nest Saturday, I promise, will be no less interesting.  Wi will do all possible to not to end this ToD with a score of 6: 2.

Thanks for another good mission 

[707shap_Srbin]

Yes, that was incredible. 

 

It was good desicion not to sent our fighters to cover R/R station at Surovikino, and not to sent Ju88 (Lofte, as usual) to attack enemy R/R station. We concentrated all fighters to escort our brave Bf110's to Tinguta (wich was bombed completely), and divert all Jagdwaffe to defend our sector B. Some fight emerged, but lucky we had number superiority and won.

 

Thanks all for good mission. We completed all planned objectives. Also, at least, we were able to make 2 airlift flights. Tomorrow, friends, we will attack!

 

Special thanks for 1st Czech Lions and I./JG1 "Oesau" for exellent fighter job. We wad minimal losses and considerable success in air fights.

 

Way to go!
