Was any Klemm 35 Z "Zwilling" ever destroyed by Allied aircraft?

The 82nd FS score board seems to suggest so! http://www.footnote.com/image/32192877/photos|east|easts|wretham|photo/#32193003 NB. Also of interest are the few twin-boom Gotha gliders, a Storch, an Ar 96 and another small glider with narrow-chord wings (a DFS no doubt). |

To me, it looks more like two single engine fighters. The middele between the two fuselages shows a dent, indicating the rounded endcaps....
I think the "artist/ painter" was just a bit sloppy in spacing the two (individual) a/c. |

Yes, I thought so too, but they're not fighters though (too small, different shape). All other outlines are very distinct and recognisable (Bf 109, Fw 190, Bf 110, He 111, Do 17, Me 210, Ju 88, Fi 156, Ar 96, Go 242...) but this one is/these two are a bit vague. So even if they represent two individual kills, I am still a little puzzled as to what aircraft they illustrate...

I would imagine a Zwilling-version -like i.e. He 111 Z- would have a modified center wing, without any dents and not of just the double width of the two individual wings. I would still want to stick to my opinion, these are two individual a/c (of vague outline indeed and [maybe] just accidentaly touching eachother). |
