Hi...
Can anyone help with some information about what unit(s) used this variant, please? At
www.luftarchiv.de under the heading 'sontiges gerät', then 'ballonabweiser', there is a photograph (you'll need to scroll down to the second of the He111 pics) showing a machine with what looks like a unit emblem under the canopy, although all that can be seen is a large, presumably white, shield. There is also a white/yellow(?) letter on the fuselage.
Years ago in the Airfix magazine, there was an article on how to convert an He111 to the cable-cutter version, and the well-known photo of the crash-landed 'aircraft Z' was shown. I seem to remember though, that there was also mention of KG27 using the H-8, and am curious to know if this was true. Of course,
any additional information on this sub-type/unit(s) using it/markings would be much appreciated.
Thanks...
Paul
