Ju88 G6 W. Nr. 623186 - Any Loss Info?
 

Hey guys...

I suspect she was a damaged wreck, as opposed to complete loss.

I think production would have been around late 1944 or early 1945.

Anyone have further info? Crew, date, loss, etc?

TIA

Mike

It's sister aircraft 623185 was one of several factory-fresh Ju 88 G found at Langensalza. It may very well be that 623186 was also one of these.

Hello Mike and Roger,
I think that Roger has nailed the probable answer here. Among the twenty (many newly-assembled) Ju 88 G-6 night fighters that I have documented at Fl.Horst Langensalza (coordinates 51.129444 10.621667) are WNrn:
622457, 622710, 622891, 622985, 622986, 623000, 623165, 623181, 623183, 623185, 623186 (Mike’s aircraft), 623189, 623217, 623382, 623387, 623388, 623392, 623398, 623399, 623431, 623432.
His Werknummer seems to dovetail nicely with the other 623xxx aircraft.

Steve

Any dates? Were all captured ones or are you quoting German documents?

Hi Stig,
My data was gleaned from numerous post-war GI photographs.
