Turn 5 Beginning of turn
Air Battles will be from North, West, East, and South
4th battle South
This battle is another the Soviets get murdered in. The only thing that is missing are the blindfolds. Thus even well rested Soviets over 59+ experience I feel is not the answer up front to confront the Germans. I feel you are going to have to use some of the older models and medi-core pilots to start at a minimum thinning out the Germans if going Head to head in air combat. That is what I came to the other day & this turn re-affirms my conviction so far. Which could change of course if someone shows me a better way. Because lords knows I could have done things incorrect for the Soviet side.

The Mig is just not for me. Granted they are produced faster than cockroaches the durability & light armament just isn't doing it for me. I have a hunch that the Lagg is going to shoot down more because of the armament. But hey I could be eating crow in a few turns.
Yes, it has the best armament with the worst max speed, durability and maneuverability. Still, you may show me something here, but wouldn't bet my life savings on it.

You may be cherry picking your photo hereI could cherry pick battle 8 or 7 ;-P (Also look at the air battles for the Northwestern front I posted earlier. Mig losses are through the roof(which could be bacuse there were more Migs)) At this point I want the aircraft that is going to shoot down the most Germans. If that happens to be the Lagg then that is my aircraft.
The Lagg-3 did shot down more German Aircraft so farPlus look at total overall losses on all the battles. My Laggs have not done overly bad.
But I have to say that M60 could still be correct overall.
