Romanian WW2 victory system

In February 1944, the ARR implemented a new and unique scoring system for victories. Victory points were awarded for confirmed and unconfirmed victories as well as for aircraft destroyed on the ground. Points were also awarded for shared victories. This system was applied to all claims prior to its introduction date and followed these rules:

3 victories for a 4 or 6 engine aircraft
2 victories for a 2 or 3 engine aircraft
1 victory for a single engine aircraft
