Re: Convoys PQ1 to PQ16 Luftwaffe losses

Is there any definite info. on which convoys were subject to air attack which would help with this. Wikipedia indicates air attacks on :

PQ10 around 12-4-42 while on the return voyage

PQ13 air attack on 28-3-42

PQ14 air attacks between 15th to 18-4-42

PQ15 attacked by 6 Ju88 on 1-5-42 one aircraft lost and on 3-5-42 by
I/KG26 who lost 3 aircraft (first torpedo attack?)

PQ16 between 25th to 30-5-42 subject to air attacks sinking 6 ships.

Probaly some recon. aircraft lost on earlier convoys but GQM would not indicate a specific convoy mission,

Regards
