ZG 26 & 76 on March 6, 1943, USAAF Raid on Berlin
Hello:
I would like to confirm the information that I have so far as well as the answers to a couple of questions that I have about these two units that were involved with defense during the USAAF March 6, 1943 raid on Berlin.
(1) From what I have so far, the units were:
ZG 26/ II & III & ZG 76/ I & II
(2) I know that the aircraft that were flown was the Bf110 but what versions were they, I think they were the G2?
(3) I have seen pictures of the Bf110 both with/with out the MG151/20 belly gun packs, would these have been fitted to the a/c during this time? Also, were these always fitted or were the gruppes/staffels set up where perhaps some of them would have these fitted and others not. I read that with the JG units, some of the Me 109G's in a gruppe/staffel would be fitted with the under wing cannons/rocket launchers while others in the same gruppe/staffel wouldn't be.
Thank you in advance and I am still checking on this as well.
Michael

Reason: Wrong Date, should be March 6, 1944. I will re-post to avoid confusion.
