It wasn't the missing He111 1T+JH from 4./KG26 because according to Andrew's post #21 Do24 had searched the missing He111 from 06:05 GST. Whether the other German losses are known for 2/3.Aug.42?

Hello Andrey,
Thank you for another set of intriguing facts! The potential use of bombs raises the possibility, again, that there was no aerial torpedo attack. I do not think there were any other German losses on 2 or 3 August in the area, although I have not read every possible source. Looks like there was some kind of attack at night, during which 1 He 111 was lost, and another attack in the morning with no losses on either side.
Warm regards,
Paul
