Re: Identity of Ju 88 Sought?

Hi Mevin,

Thanks for posting this picture and query. Quick search, and yet only possble damage % match I find for this might be

W.Nr. (0880)611 Ju 88 A-10 II/StG 2 (Fliegerkorps X)
OPS (F) forced landed (30%) at Bengasi-Mechili 08.04.1941
(from BA-MA GQM loss records)

Although attributed in GQM to II/StG 2 it could be same. Aircraft on photo seems to me be an A-5/trop or A-10 and the Curtiss fighter seems to me be an Tomahawk rather than Kittyhawk, so the time frame also seems fitting for year 1941.

Best regards
ed
