Bf 110 G-2 escort missions for Do-24 T etc
Hello all,
I'm very interested in late war, say 44-45, missions flown by Bf 110 fighters escorting German recon/rescue seaplanes like Dornier Do-24s etc off Norway. Am I right that JG 5 flew such sorties? Or are did the recon/sea rescue units posses there own destroyers for escort missions (maybe Seenotgruppe 81)?

I would like to know if there are any claims/mission reports dealing with these missions? Or any known clashes between the Bf 110 destroyers from JG 5 and Coastal Command planes?

Also I would like to know if Me 410 were used as escorts as well.

Thanks a lot for any info!

Best

Thilo
