And which model of Ju 88 is it?

There are presently two bids, either a Ju 88H-1 or Ju 88G-10....

Did really the G-10 exist?

Cheers

Hi Stig,

First, yes there were production Ju88G-10s.

Second, regarding the Mistel in question, unless I am mistaken it is:
Mistel S3C consisting of Ju88G-10, WNr. 460046 and 190A-8, WNr. unknown, marked as 1030, both located at Bernburg.

Steve,

Ju88G-10, WNr. 460046 - are you shure about this number because the smalest number from Flugbuchs of Junkers pilots with this version was 460051.

Re: Mistel photo - eBay
 

Hello Merlin,

Thank you for your correction. Boy is my face red. Clearly I was operating under an incorrect assumption.

On several photos of this Mistel S3C, the numerals “046” are visible in the lower rear quadrant of the fuselage Balkankreuz of the upper Fw190 component. Since most of the Ju88G-10s I have seen feature Werknummern in the 4600XX region, I made the intellectually-lazy jump to these being the last-three of its WNr.

In light of your information, could this number instead be a reference to the actual Mistel itself. What do you think, Sir?
