Achei um interessante artigo sobre os spitfires soviéticos:

O xará do Gunter foi quem relatou a presença dos spits primeiro:
"I wrote a summary of the battle, in which I noted the appearance of the Spitfires on the Eastern front. My group commander asked me for the time being not to discuss what had happened. ‘Perhaps you were mistaken, Rall? All this will only alarm your comrades.’ I responded that it was more likely that tomorrow we would encounter a large number of Spitfires in our sector of the front."
Também é interessante a afirmação do uso de Yaks pelo alemães:
" After dinner, the pilots clashed with a pair of Yak-1 fighters that was acting strangely. This and subsequent engagements of trophy Yaks, used by the Germans, were reflected in detail in division intelligence summaries."
Isso daria uma pitada de diferente ao planeset da missão em Kuban que estou confecionando

SP!
