[edit] Questionable data
"In the 1939 Battle of Halhin Gol against USSR in Mongolia, Ki-27 faced I-15 biplanes and I-16 monoplanes, and dominated them with its maneuverability, downing a total of 1,252 enemy aircraft."
Soviet data (skewed for sure) had Soviet air losses at 207 planes and Japanese - 660 planes. Data taken from Soviet Military Encyclopedia (8 volumes).
There is some losses discussion: http://www.warbirdforum.com/nomonhan.htm http://www.warbirdforum.com/nomon2.htm http://www.warbirdforum.com/nomon3.htm
It mentions official Japanese fight losses data - 90 aircraft, 62 of them Ki-27.
- See Soviet air losses:
Total of Soviet Fighters shot down (I-16, I-15, I-153) = 156 of the 207 planes shot down. Compared to the Japanese 62. Thats still a pretty good 2.5/1 ratio.Asiaticus 05:46, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Are you assuming all those Soviet air losses were due to Ki-27? 71.235.243.144 19:18, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WPMILHIST Assessment
Good length, though most of that length is tech specs. Could probably benefit from an infobox. LordAmeth 10:15, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
