Slowing the Red Tide

by Nicolas Trudgian


Fw 190's of stab JG51 provide support to armour breaking out of the beseiged 'Festung Konigsberg' in East Prussia, February 1945 and are engaged by Yak 3's of the famed Normandie-Niemen Group. The determined action of the Wehrmacht opened a life-saving corridor to the Baltic and was one of their last significant tactical victories on the Eastern Front.
