Thanks Ed
I was hoping you were going to come to our rescue!
When Junkers were building their WNr range 0880022 and up, no doubt they were trying to maximize their output. Trouble with getting the A-4 right made them continue with the old A-5 version which if I have understod things right was a sort of stop gap version.
Now were some aircraft already on the production line taken aside and built from the beginning as A-5F or was that done entirely at some kind of modification center?
Since, again if I have understood things right, the D-2 model was a way for Luftwaffe to maximize the range AND have a camera in place since the camera no longer intruded on the fuel cells, were they all converted from A-5F or were some even converted straight away to D-2? Or were they even built from scratch as D-2 without any conversion at all?
Finally were in such a case all D-2s produced from A model batches while the D-1s were built from scratch in their separate 0880430001 and up batch? So far I have not seen any independent D-2 batch being built.
Cheers
