Re: Luftwaffe Night Fighter Device


Thank you Nick and Ed for prompt actions!

Nick, I track your thinking regarding your Bletchley Park countrymen—indeed, some of the ULTRA translations into English are occasionally somewhat rough and ready. Ed, your observation is interesting; I hadn't run into AWG 2 because of my chronological progress in the material, but no surprise that there was a second "new and improved" iteration or modification of the device.

Nick, here's a verbatim extract from PRO HW 5/601 - CX/MSS/R.339(A),
para. 67:

Transmission dated 16.10.44. "Transit Depot LANGENDIEBACH reports the following a/c equipped with AWG 1 from 8 - 14/10[1944]:"

There follows itemization of two Ju 88G-1s and two G-6. One G-1 and one G-6 to III./NJG 1; one G-6 to Stab NJG 1, and one G-1 to I./NJG 4.
