Bf 109F of III./JG 52 damaged in battle over Rumania on 26 June 1941
Recently a pair of photos was listed on eBay that shows a battle damaged Bf 109F of III./JG 52, No. 3 (yellow?), which crash landed on Mamaia airfield, Rumania. The airfield lies on the shores of the Black Sea. In the first days of war on East, there were intense air battles with Soviet bombers that attempted to bomb various Rumanian targets.
Unfortunately (for me), I could not win the photos (they went, again, to Sudek 13).
The aircraft looks like it was seriously damaged, so it must show up on various Luftwaffe loss lists.
However, I found no matching loss for this particular incident.
Does anyone have any details? It would be highly interesting for me for a book project I am currently working on together with two other colleagues.
If anyone has direct contacts with Sudek 13, it would be nice if I could secure some scans for our upcoming book.
Thanks,
