Seidov

G'day, just be aware that Seidov has been criticised as nationalistic and over enthusiastic about claiming victories. Suggest giving the US version of these matters as well as Seidov to balance any bias. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/177th Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO for a discussion.

@Peacemaker67: Ok, but either way, it is certainly worth noting that Seidov's crediting is less than what Pepelyaev himself claimed. In fact, US sources tend to give higher tallies to him (and several other Soviet Korean war aces I want to write biographies of) than the estimates by Seidov.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 13:53, 24 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
