The authors present for the first time the contribution of Armenian pilots to the common victory in the Great Patriotic War and is based mainly on the basis of newly discovered archival documents. Along with representatives of other peoples of the Soviet Union, thousands of Armenian pilots fought in the Red Army Air Force. More than a thousand of them distinguished themselves in the air battles for the Baltics, the Black Sea region, and other regions of the USSR and were awarded orders and medals. Many Armenians held high positions in various units of the Red Army Air Force. Sergei Khudyakov (Armenak Khanferyants, the Hero of the Soviet Union) was the commander of the 1st, then 12th Air Army, Sergei Sardarov was the commander of the 123rd Air Division, Rafael Kaprelyan was the commander of the 89th Air Transport Regiment (the Hero of the Soviet Union). In total, 14 Armenian pilots were awarded the title of the Hero of the Soviet Union, and Nelson Stepanyan was awarded twice hero of the Soviet Union.
