Erich Hartmann was shot down in his early career, several times. He was not shot down and captured by the Russians, he flew to the West with his ground crew in the tail. The Americans handed him over to the Russians as he had served on the Eastern front. Erich Hartmann was captured in 1944 by the Russians and escaped. Who makes these shit documentaries?
00:28 Molders. The D model didn't fire through the prop hub that was the F. The E model had cannons in the wings. The narrow landing gear also helped transport on trains etc, not just for manufacture. 109's were not offensive or defensive fighters, they were intercepters. MW50 and GM1 are two different methods, ones for low Alt and the other for high... The 30mm cannon was only on the K version. Nosed over in a -G??? This guy is talking shit...
Oh my... they were sleeping when they made that film. They talk about A, B, C, D variants and show an 'emil' flying all the time. Then they show a 'Gustav' and talk about self sealing tanks...
Man, man, man... film cutting and texting should go together!
very Wrong Facts the F2 had a 15 mm Cannons but soon the f4 took its place whit 1 20mm cannon and many pilots said in interviews said that the F4 was the best Aircraft they ever Flew
At least one error in this vid. Erich Hartmann was not captured by the Russians. He was turned over to the Russians after surrendering to the 90th Army division on the last day of the war. As were many German pilots. I have never understood where this edict or order came from. Who in the US Army said "turn them over to the Russians? I know there were bounties offered by the Russians for German Pilots. Did some higher ups in the US Army receive some bounty money? Maybe some day we will know.
Does anyone else agree with oron42? Get sent to a goo lag and various prison camps for 10 years because you did your duty and certainly he committed no war crimes.
And as Cris7yerly correctly points out Erich Hartmann was never shot down in combat. He never lost a wingman either. 825 combat missions.
P.S. oron42 I think you left the M out of your name.
U right...almost. Hartman was exactly wonderful pilot and, probably the human, but hi was serve for DEVIL!. He could refused!. U, Germans, looking an anchor in Your's past and raise your's heads. U want forget Your's wrong past and make new version of the history! It's wrong way!. We have too wrong experiences with our own citizens but Your's nation is most " distinguished" in this case!. We can't permit u forget about it!.
@fw190bk1 I have got too my two heros: general Stanislaw Skalski and my own granfather!. They where fight against your's country and nazi. But only Skalski were the pilot. After war and return home, he was ARRESTED and embedded to the death cell, where were few years!. Our's country were occupied by Germans and them by Russian and their polish supporters unluckily. I CAN BE A PROUD. But U should be quietly!. Skalski was too profesional but don't see U any differences?!. If not we can't talk!.
In the beginning of the film and at 2.32, two service men turn a crank. If that is the starter, how does it work? Do they spin up a big crank wheel or compress air or...?

Love those shevron markings, I cut my grass with that design. Little do my neighbors know why. When I am done cutting it looks awesome.

You are correct! Another error in this video.
He never lost a wingman either.
Two amazing feats in 825 combat missions.
