Re: Information on KG 26 - December 1942
There are a number of reasons why 6 of the aircraft failed to attack. They could have gone astray and missed the convoy. They could have been unable to reach a promising attack position (because of convoy manoeuvring or AA fire) before reaching a low fuel state. They could have suffered technical failures and had to return.
