Re: Command Atlantic, December 1943.
Fighter sweeps by ZG 1 were in the morning and another fighter sweep by 4 Fw 190s was also AM and returned early due to bad weather. It would appear from Luftflotte 3 that few if any German aircraft were airborne late afternoon/evening over Biscay region. It would also appear that 502 Sqn had to find the ships by using radar and conditions were hazy/it might be getting dark which would explain why no day fighters. Only night fighter unit was Kdo Kunkel and that makes no mention/had limited number of aircraft
