Primoz Debenjak This article doesn't seem to be a reliable source of info Sat May 22, 2024 19:57 217.72.68.6 According to this article, "more than 100" or "more than 700" Allied aircraft were downed by Me 262s (one of these figures must be a typo). I also found "100 mph (240 km/h)" (instead of 160 km/h). Don't believe everything you read. |
