List of aerial victories claimed by Walter Schuck

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Walter Schuck (30 July 1920 – 27 March 2015) was a German military aviator who served in the Luftwaffe from 1937 until the end of World War II. As a fighter ace, he claimed 206 enemy aircraft shot down in over 500 combat missions, eight of which while flying the Messerschmitt Me 262 jet fighter.[1][Note 1]

List of aerial victories claimed

[edit]

According to US historian David T. Zabecki, Schuck was credited with 206 aerial victories.[2] Mathews and Foreman, authors of Luftwaffe Aces — Biographies and Victory Claims, researched the German Federal Archives and found records for 181 aerial victory claims, plus nine further unconfirmed claims. This figure of confirmed claims includes 171 aerial victories on the Eastern Front and 10 on the Western Front, including four four-engined bombers and 8 victories with the Me 262 jet fighter.[3]

Victory claims were logged to a map-reference (PQ = Planquadrat), for example "PQ 36 Ost 3087". The Luftwaffe grid map (Jägermeldenetz) covered all of Europe, western Russia and North Africa and was composed of rectangles measuring 15 minutes of latitude by 30 minutes of longitude, an area of about 360 square miles (930 km2). These sectors were then subdivided into 36 smaller units to give a location area 3 km × 4 km (1.9 mi × 2.5 mi) in size.[4]

 (Ace of spades) indicates those aerial victories which made Schuck an "ace-in-a-day", a term which designates a fighter pilot who has shot down five or more airplanes in a single day.
 (dash) indicates unconfirmed aerial victory claims for which Schuck did not receive credit.
! (exclamation mark) indicates those aerial victories listed by Mombeek, Prien, Stemmer, Rodeike and Bock.
# (hash mark) indicates those aerial victories listed by Mathews and Foreman.
