Bf 109 G-10 130 xxx Batch
Hi guys
Many thanks for the information posted earlier. So it appears that the loss list entry for Woitke might be correct and that he possibly was flying one of the very few DB 605 AS powered Bf 109 G-10 fighters on his final mission. The only way to make sure would be to come across a list of Erla production plans that would specify which aircraft received which engine if such exists. Oberst, here are the losses of Bf 109 G-10 fighters suffered by 15./JG 27. I hope that you find this useful for your purposes.
