Dear Russ,
thanks for your very valuable info.
This is my updated list of the top nightfighter aces by type:- Bf 110: Heinz-Wolfgang Schnaufer, 121 night kills in that type
- Ju 88: Heinrich zu Sayn-Wittgenstein, likely 83 night kills in that type
- He 219: Ernst-Wilhelm Modrow, 33 night kills in that type according to forum member Szymon (Gizmo)
- Do 217: Rudolf Schoenert, 27 night kills in that type according to info provided by Russ
- Me 262: Kurt Welter (dubious score): 25 night kills in that type
- Bf 109: Kurt Welter: 23 night kills in that type
- Fw 190: Friedrich-Karl Müller: 19-22 night kills in that type
- Do 215: Ludwig Becker: 19 night kills in that type according to Mikael Olrog's book
- He 111: Günther Bertram: 14 night kills in that type
- Me 410: Johann Trenke: 12 night kills in that type
Did Wittgenstein ever score in another plane type than the Ju 88 ?
