Me 210 lost in Pommern need help.
 

Hi all,
Looking for information about the crew aircraft Me 210 which lost in Ragenthin - Woldenberg.
A short history of the local people ...
The plane was strafed by Soviet antiaircraft artillery, was hit in the engine plane losing altitude dropped two more bombs then cutting a few trees fell into the lake with a crew .....
Wreck was penetrated by the local population and fishermen, not much about this aircraft has been, but managed to establish only so much that this is the Me 210.
Maybe to determine the fate of this aircraft is to say., Werknumber, the names of the crew, unit.
Best Regards,
Jarek

Happy New Year :)

Hi,
It is difficult to establish the exact date, in my opinion, the Soviet army operated in the region 28 January to 15 February 1945. If the plane was actually shot down by AA
I have another question unless specifically Me 210 missing in Pomerania in 1945, and how many machines Me 410?
Best Regards,
Jarek

Hi,

the only unit equipped with the Me 410 in that area early 1945 was 5.(F)/122.

The unit reported the Me 410B-3 WNr. 150165 F6+RH (taken over from 1.(F)/122) as lost under unknown cirumstances on a reconnaissance mission on 12.02.45. The crew (no names given in the report) is missing.
