Bf.109 wreck found in the Tyrrhenian sea
A group of italian divers has found the wreck of a Bf.109G-6.
They think it could be Bf.109G-6 wr. nr. 162739 of the 3./JG 77 lost on may 15, 1944 in a Luftkampf, pilot Gefr. Hans Joachim Kautz missing.
I've read in the JG 77 history written by Dr. Prien that the pilot was posted missing in the Acquapendente/Montalto area.
Does anyone may give any additional detail about that combat, the place where the aircraft went down and the story of the aircraft itself?
Thank you
Gianandrea
