From other forum some hints

As you know, the Junkers Ju 188 D-2 was a reconnaissance variant of the Ju 188 A-2 and equipped with two 1,750 hp Jumo 213A-1 in-line engines, driving VS-111 paddle blade propellers. Maximum speed was ca. 323 mph. The D-2 often had the nose MG 151 cannon deleted. Cameras were mounted in the rear fuselage underside and normally two ETC bomb racks were retained for carrying drop tanks. Usually, optional fuel tanks were installed in the bomb bay, giving the Ju 188 D-2 a maximum range of up to 2,110 miles.
Intended for anti-shipping reconnaissance, the Ju 188 D-2 had a provision for carrying a FuG 200 “Hohentwiel” search radar.
The Ju 188 seldom equipped entire units, rather they were distributed, as needed, to specialized Staffeln or Gruppen within Ju 88 units (and also some Ju 188 were used in non-Ju 88 units for particular missions). Ju 188 D were known to have served with Aufklärungs- gruppen 11, 14, 22, 33, 100, 120, 121, 122, 123 and 124. They served also as partial equipment with Nachtaufklärungsstaffel 2 and 4 (night reconnaissance) and with Wekusta 51 (weather reconnaissance).
I keep a photo of a Ju 188 D-2 from Aufkl.Gr.(F) 124, photographed at Kirkenes, Norway, in 1945. Ju 188 were operated from the 1.Staffel/Aufkl.Gr.(F) 124. The unit used the code G2 for the Gruppe and H for the 1.Staffel. The third (individual) letter was white or outlined in white. Sadly, there is no code visible on the wreckage. The plate bears the inscription AENDERUNGSTUFE (this means some changings in the equipment after the plane was built or delivered).
