how good were they against american pilots?

They were better than the Chinese pilots, and if you believe Soviet

claims,
they shot down near the entire production run of F-86s. g



of course they are nonsense. an american pilot was probably 5 times
as good as the best russian pilot.


Just out of curious how do you come out with the claim the American pilot
was 5
time as good as the best russian pilot, I think you are talking rubbish.



One thing we do know...the Mig 15 was pretty useless unless it had the
British Rolls-Royce engine in it...which BTW, the design was stolen from a
German prototype. The Mig 15 wasn't really a Russian aircraft, it was much
more German in its origins.
