The Sky’s Deadliest Champion: Erich Hartmann

During his time as a fighter pilot, Erich “Black Devil” Hartmann was credited with 352 aerial kills, making him the highest-scoring fighter ace in history. As one of the bad guys, his exploits are viewed with a bit less admiration than some of his Allied counterparts. But even if his politics leave something to be desired, there’s no denying that the man could fly a plane like nobody’s business.
