Re: "Zerstorer" Hardback by John Vasco and Peter Cornwell - Coming from Wingleader in 2025
To Peter's #78. WNr. 3135 would make it the second D-0 built by Mtt-Augsburg, delivered early April 1940.
What Peter sets out in this post is fine in theory, but it fails to explain why the example on p.13 does not exhibit the fuselage structural changes of the Schlauchbootanlage that I mentioned as only being introduced with the D-series. Those new additions were listed in the Fz.Handbuch for the D-series and are also evidenced in the "Beschreibung und Einbau der Zusatzanlagen für das Flugzeugmuster Bf 110 D", reference L.Dv.T. 2413/1 (Entwurf).
Besides, as I also mentioned, the WNr. of the M8+FH mit Dackelbauch is readable as WNr. 3171 in the photo on p.21 (not p.22 as given in #78).
Nice to know that some of this thread is still be being read though. :-)
