Fritz Karch "Abschuss"
 

Reputed to have claimed 10 "Abschuss" between august 44 and January 45.

I only found 2 in October 44 (7 and 20 ).

Someone knows more?

Hi Michel

Using previous information prior to the Mikro films data, I would in my opinion say not. Only twenty confirmed claims on the mikro films until end October 1944, possibly a few more before the wars end, but JG 2 in general made very few claims during 1945.

Hi Johannes,

do you have any source that confirms JG2's low claims in 1945? Other JG in action against allied tactical aircraft in 1945 in the west have more or less around 90-100 claims each (JG26, 27 and 53).
