Re: Ju 88 A-17 ??+DP

Hi thenelm and Ednorth,

thanks for first info.
I have seen a picture in a private photo collection of a torpedo mechanic (from 8. LT BK), taken about spring 1943 in italy. The marking +DP was visible. The aircraft was equiped with LT, and had the special bulge on the right side of the fuselage. So for sure, at least modified, a A-17.

6. KG 26 fits very well, as the LT BK was attached mainly to II./KG26.

So it's maybe possible, AC was modified to A-17, in loss records still mentioned as A-4?

As i'm currently looking for more documentation about torpedo units, i'll try to get the picture.

Best greetings.
