Re: Please help with info about German BT (bomb-torpedoes) and TZA-2 (A&D)

I've never seen any evidence that the BT weapons were used in action. There are organisation tables that refer to III./KG 200 as "III./KG 200 (BT)" but no evidence at all that they ever operated against ships but a lot of information about them making conventional attacks on land targets.

It was planned that III./200 would use BT from Norway against British Naval units at Scapa Flow but the operation never took place (perhaps because the Fw 190 F did not have the range for the trip there and back if it carried a bomb instead of a drop tank).
