High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Colonel Yevgeny Georgievich Pepelyaev (born 18 March 1918 in Bodaybo, Irkutsk, Eastern Siberia) is a Soviet fighter pilot of the Korean war, tallying 20 kills, second only to his compatriot Nikolay Sutyagin's 21. During a 1993 interview, Pepelyaev stated that he shot down 12 aircraft for sure, probably 15, while independent research matching claims with American and Australian records puts the tally at 14. He stated that the practice was, if a pilot shot at an enemy aircraft, he was given credit for shooting it down. Soviet verification procedures became much more stringent as the war progressed, as the Soviet high command was finding the numbers of claimed shoot downs to be dubious. He was the commander of the 196th Fighter Air Regiment. In his MiG-15, Yevgeny Pepelyaev shot down 16 F-86 Sabres, one F9F Panther, one F-84 Thunderjet, and two F-94 Starfires. He flew 109 combat missions, with 38 aerial engagements.
