Talk:Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star

First Jet vs Jet Kill
In the paragraph on first jet vs jet combat, under Korean War, it is stated "On 1 November 1950, a Russian MiG-15 pilot, Lieutenant Semyon F. Khominich, became the first pilot in history to be credited with a jet-versus-jet aerial kill after he claimed to have shot down an F-80. According to the Americans, the F-80 was downed by flak." without a reference to support this claim. While later the paragraph reads "One week later, on 8 November, the first American claim for a jet-versus-jet aerial kill was made when Lieutenant Russell J. Brown, flying an F-80, reported that he downed a MiG-15. Soviet records claim that no MiGs were lost that day and that their pilot, Senior Lieutenant Kharitonov, survived by pulling out of a dive at low altitude." which is sourced twice, first for the claim, then for the dispute. The first claim, if unsupported by reference, should be removed. Zandovise (talk) 01:06, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
