Ghost of Kiev
Probably should refrain from including anything regarding the "Ghost of Kiev/Kyiv" because at the ghost is not a single identifiable person and is considered legend. --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 15:28, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Other conflicts, other aces: Comments
I've been reading about the Somali-Ethiopian war (1977-78), & Ethiopian fighter pilots downed a total of 3 Somali aircraft -- so no aces there.

I don't know if there was any significant air combat in the Sino-Vietnamese war (1979).

We're going to need to wait until its resolution to know if there are any flying aces in the Russian invasion of Ukraine, because of military secrecy. However, I suspect if there were any Russian aces Putin's propaganda machine would have boasted about it by now.

I have the suspicion I have forgotten one or two other post-WWII conflicts where aircraft were shot down. -- llywrch (talk) 03:46, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * My mistake -- there was one flying ace in the Somali-Ethiopian war: Lagesse Terfera, who deserves an article. (AFAIK, he's so far the only sub-Saharan flying ace.) -- llywrch (talk) 04:06, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
