The Soviets had built a LOT of airplanes to provide tactical support for ground operations on the Eastern front. And dont' discount the expertise and experience of those who flew those airplanes against the Luftwaffe for years.

You continue to discount the magnitude of the battles on the Eastern front; I wouldn't be so quick to totally dismiss Soviet Air capabilities vs. the Allies. Necessity drove large improvements in Soviet miliary aircraft capabilities during WWII. Even today, MIGs and SUs are still some of the best combat airframes even today. The US only edge is in Stealth and electronics technologies.
