David_4555 Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Hi. I watched this video by Mark Felton (I know) about the last kills of the Luftwaffe on VE day. According to him, on 8th May 1945, 3 pilots scored aerial victories: Gerhard Thyben (JG54) shot down a Pe-2 over the Baltic, flying a Fw-190A-8 Erich Hartmann (JG52) shot down a Yak-9 (and almost got involved in a fight with both Soviet Yaks and US Mustangs at once) over Czechoslovakia while flying a Bf-109G-10 (he says its a K-4) Fritz Stehle (JG7) shot down an Airacobra (maybe a Kingcobra?) over Czechoslovakia while flying an Me-262A My questions are as follow: are those correct? does anyone have any info about Luftwaffe victories in the last days of the war (May 1945)? I'd love to read more about this Video here
GOA_Karaya_VR Posted August 1 Posted August 1 For what i know and read, the Yak 9 was performing some acrobatics over russian troops when Hartmann shot him down. At least that should be correct. Regards. 2
