<p>[QUOTE=&quot;panzerman, post: 25242135, member: 77704&quot;]Yes, Erich Hartmann will be the true, &quot;Top Gun&quot; in history of aerial warfare. He was never shot down by enemy fire. He scored 352 confirmed kills on Eastern Front. His best friend Gerd Barkhorn was second highest with 302 kills. Some rate Heinz Bár 220 victories/ 120 Western front/ rest Eastern/ 16 in Me-262 jet, just as high. Turns out Kurt Welter/ nightfighter ace, scored 33 kills flying Me-262 equipped with radar/ dubbed the &quot;mosquito killer&quot; He scored 63 victories at night. There are always what ifs? Had Werner Mólders 102 kills not have been killed in a flying mishap in 1941/ he was first too break 100 mark. Hans Joachim Marseilles JG-27 &quot;Star of Afrika&quot; scored 159 vs RAF/ USSAF pilots/ died when engine caught fire/ parachute mishap in 1943/ he may have beaten 352 mark? One Finnish ace scored 94 kills vs Russians. Finland was Germanys best ally.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
