Keep WP:1E does not apply to this article, he is not notable for a single event, but for earning the title, Hero of the Soviet Union and fighting in numerous air battles. Through a quick search on Google Books, I found he is mentioned in the following sources [1][2][3]. He is also mentioned in this webpage about the P-39 Airacobra in the USSR, [4]. There are also some sources on the Russian Wikipedia article about him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GoldenBootWizard276 (talk • contribs) 08:35, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The Russian Wikipedia article mentions entries on the subject in this biographical dictionary and this history. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 15:33, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. An air ace, who we usually keep, with the highest award of his country, which we usually keep. Consensus is definitely to keep. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:04, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Person is awarded by one of the highest award of USSR. There are many references to him in the literature, although it is not shown in the article. It's easy to google and check. Kursant504 (talk) 12:40, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
