“Supposedly” indeed. That is 100% mythology, in fact. There was no such VVS unit and no such VVS operations of FW 190s. Moreover, I have never heard of any organised defection of Nazi pilots to the USSR, nor could I imagine why they would attempt it, nor could I believe that they would be accepted by Soviet authorities. Utterly impossible.
Never heard about it either, but defection to the USSR is not all that unlikely.
Surely you are aware, that not all German pilots were nazi’s. Some might even have harboured socialist ideas, as the actual socialist (not the national socialist) party had plenty of members in pre-war Germany.
Utterly impossible are strong words.
After all; second lieutenant Martin James Monti defected to Germany along with his P-38.
