The puzzle with lost night recce plane between 4 and 6.Feb remains. Maybe it was from Küstenstaffel Krim if, as Ulf Balke wrote, the Staffel really had He111 with Hohentwiel radar.

Hi Andrey,
Re 4.(F)/122:
19 February 1944: Odessa operating under I. Fliegerkorps. (1)
March 1944: transferred to Königsberg/East Prussia (probably Königsberg-Neuhausen) to rest, refit and begin conversion to the Ju 188. (2)
1. NARA/WashDC: RG 242 microfilms.
2. ADI(K) interr.sum.
I hope this helps. I wish my sourcing was more specific but there were times during my years and years of research, especially in the German microfilms and the British Air Ministry intelligence material, when I got weary and took shortcuts when it came to the footnotes.
