Production numbers
George,
I'm not an expert on He 219, so please forgive me, but as you say that Remp is wrong with the DB 603 G, is he also wrong with the production numbers? He gives the production per three months on page 149 of his book and there he states, that highest production was last three month of 1944 with 63 planes and only one plane less for the following three months (production from July to September 1944 only 38 planes!). So the 35 planes Artie states for January 1945 could easily be right if these numbers are correct.
Also according to "Flugzeug Profile Nr. 10" by Dressel and Griehl the He 219 A7/R1 to R4 were equipped with DB603 G.
Is it possible that all these DB 603 G-rumors occur from a typo and these were really DB 603 E's?
Kind regards
Robert
