THE KUBAN ESCALATOR

One of Aleksandr I. Pokryshkin's
innovations was the "Kuban Escalator".
Pokryshkin was the commander of the elite
16th Guards Fighter Air Regiment,
equipped with P-39s, and his emphasis on
vertical dispersion led to a formation of
vertically staggered pairs for support,
usually 2,600 to 3,200.  Pokryshkin ended
the war as the second ranking ace for the
Soviet Union, with 59 kills.

MISSION

Engage the German fighters and keep you
own losses to a minimum.

NOTES

This is a snow scenario.
