T3+IH (Red "I" seems odd), as photo shows all codes in Black.

Bismarck had:
Ar 196 A-2 W.Nr. 0123 “T3+DL” (Fw. J. Kemple)
Ar 196 A-3 W.Nr. 0150 “T3+MK” (Fw. W. Seeliger)
Ar 196 A-2 W.Nr. 0110 “T3+AK” (Fw. O. Andersen)
Ar 196 A-2 W.Nr. 0052 “T3+JH” (Uffz. E. Lange)

Did any Atlantic raider (1939/1940) carry Ar 196s or He 114s ?
