Re: 1x.01.1945 = Ju-52 = Hungary
Ju 52, WNr.: 6333 was downed by 17 ВА, 1654 аэр. полк ПВО, but 17 ВА, 1614 аэр. полк ПВО also claimed it.
The crashing plane damaged a 76.2 mm (probably Zis-3) gun of the soviet 627th Art. Reg. at Zugliget-N, 1 km. (A favorite hiking area in the Buda hills and forests in the Western side of Budapest, near the Janos (John)-Hill lookout.) Survivor radioman, Fw Wilhelm Schneck was captured and interrogated by them.
Attached pic shows the remains of a Ju 52 in the Buda hills, probably in the summer of 1945. Perhaps this plane....
