    Is this the lowest victory claim accuracy ever?

    48 There are later examples (already during the Continuation War) when the daily overclaim rate by Finnish pilots was comparable — for instance, only two out of 18 claims were confirmed by Soviet documents on one day. According to Marchenko's figures, in June 1944, Finnish pilots from HLeLv 24...

    F...ck AI! A great example of how using AI leads to a complete misunderstanding of the issue. Enough with the meaningless posts that contain no relevant information.
