Messerschmitt Bf 110 Shoots Down Soviet Ilyushin Il-2

Air-to-Air combat footage recorded in 1943 shows a Nazi Germany Messerschmitt Bf 110 bringing down a Soviet Ilyushin Il-2. It's hard to tell from this aged footage, but it appears as if the Il-2 is being shot at by another system as well.


I wish I had more context for this one for you guys. All I know is that the video was recorded in 1943 while aboard the Messerschmitt.
