Germany takes a land, conduct five land combats and ground support to three. The Soviet Red Air force opposed two of the ground support and even lent defensive ground support to one.
The first air to air combat was only opposed by Soviet fighters and did not include defensive ground support. The air to air battle was won by the Luftwaffe which got all their bombers through to the target.
The second air to air combat, which included Soviet fighters and bombers, was for air support to a critical attack that could open a path to Moscow if successful for the Germans. This critical attack was being conducted on a narrow front (i.e., one stack versus one stack) and saw now less than 6 Luftwaffe bombers attempting to provide 23 factors of ground support to the attack. The air battle that resulted was an embarrassment to the Luftwaffe. Though the Red Fighter unit was out classed it managed to get its bomber through to the target and shoot down two quality Luftwaffe bomber units.
