Re: Recce plane (Ju88D from 4.(F)/122?) FTR 4-6.Feb.1944
Thank you, Dennis,
I saw it. Is it means that the lost plane was found by Germans, and so they knew the reason of the loss?
If the crew or some members were KIA, the info should be in NVM.
AA Defence had registered a Ju88 5.Feb.44 at 22:03-22:20 MSK = 20:03-20:20 MEZ over Caucasus coast (Lazarevskaya - Tuapse). So the plane, if it was lost at night 5/6.Feb., had executed at least a part of his mission before the loss. Can't find any relevant info for the night 4/5.Feb.44.
35.IAP PVO (AA Defence) had claimed a recce He111 on 6.Feb.44 at 12:02 MSK = 10:02 MEZ 70 km w. Batumi, intercepted with help of land radar. It was hardly a night plane due to time of event. But it could be Ju188F from 3.(F)/121 (they were used for photo recce of the Soviet Black sea bases during timeframe in question).
Best regards,
Andrey
