mightythor99 is on a distinguished road
another thing to keep in mind

is that the germans moved flak units around sometimes. in '44 and '45, they moved some of the better units/more accurate firing units to more key locations. there are always flak guns around their aircraft bases also, that is standard operating procedures.
these more accurate firing units made a little bit of difference, but the swarms of allied bombers overhead made it pretty much a wash. what good is getting 10 bombers shot down,....out of 300, or 500 of them flying overhead. air superiority was key to beating the germans. that was the icing on the cake,....besides being attacked from all sides..........
