Re: Did the Luftwaffe use captured Allied Aircraft as 'bogies' & 'spotter aircraft' frequently in the defence of the Reich?

The stalking or shadowing (Fühlungshalter) aircraft were all German - Ju 88s and Bf 110s - and were assigned to the Luftbeobachterstaffeln 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7.

The captured Allied aircraft were all used by the Versuchsverband Ob.d.L. and in 1944-45 by KG 200.
