Re: Ju86P and R

Accurate information about the Ju 86P and R series are hard to come by. However, I do have the following from Bundesarchiv files:
C-Amts Programm Nr. 19 vom 1.7.1941 V-Muster:
Ju 86P-1 (V-28) Jumo 207 W.Nr. 5156 In Erprobung als Höhenbomber.
Ju 86P-1 (V-29) Jumo 207 W.Nr. 0279 In Erprobung als Höhenbomber.
Ju 86P-1 (V-30) Jumo 207 W.Nr. 5097 Höhenbomber. Umbau auf Ju 86P-5
Ju 86P-3 (V-36) Jumo 207B W.Nr. 0421 Aufklärer.
Ju 86P (V-37) Jumo 207 W.Nr. 5161 Versuche mit Jumo.
Ju 86P-5 (V-39) Jumo 207 W.Nr. 5132 Höhenbomber.
Ju 86P-5 (V-38) Jumo 207 W.Nr. 0444 Höhenbomber.
Ju 86P (V-33) Jumo 207 W.Nr. 0433 Aufklärer

C-Amts Programm Nr. 18 von 1.8.1940 Umbauflugzeuge:
Ju 86P-1 Jumo 207 Junkers Total on order 31 delivered to 31.7.40 Nil Höhenbomber
Ju 86P-2 Jumo 207 Junkers Total on order 6 delivered to 31.7.40 2 Aufklärer
All were conversions of earlier models.

Flugzeug-Programm Nr. 222 vom 15.12.42
Ju 86R-1 Jumo 207B-3 Junkers Total on order 16 Delivered up to 30.11.42 16 Höhenaufklärer.
Ju 86R-2 Jumo 207B-3 Junkers Total on order 3 Delivered up to 30.11.42 3 Höhenbomber
All were conversions of Ju 86P-Serie aircraft.

Known Ju 86P-3 conversions were W.Nr. 0285, 0292, 0421, 0428 and 0293.
The first Ju 86P-1 aircraft was W.Nr. 0421 taken over by Luftwaffe on 29.11.41.
Other R-1 aircraft were W.Nr. 0285 and 0292.
The first R-2 aircraft was apparently W.Nr. 5132 which was scheduled for delivery in Febrary 1942.
