Viktor Talalikhin was flying a Polikarpov I-16 fighter plane when he tailed an enemy bomber, shot up one of its engines and later rammed it. This heroic feat during a dogfight near Moscow made his name forever famous.
🎖 On August 8, 1941, intrepid pilot Viktor Talalikhin, then only 22, became Hero of the Soviet Union.
