Seeking details of Ju 88 A-4 werknummer 3795 (7./KG 3)

[Adriano Baumgartner]

Good morning to all members.

Am looking for details of the Ju 88 A-4, werknummer 3795 that apparently flew with 7./KG 3.

I do not know it's fate but it seems it was crash landed ar Rshew on the 31st July 1942 after being hit by ground fire and maybe AAA.

Can anyone confirm the crewmembers and codes 5K+?? of this machine?

By the way, who were the Staffelkapitäne of 7./KG 3, between 1941 and 1942?

Thank you for kind help.

Adriano

Just out of interest 3795 is also mentioned as a Ju88A-17 of II./KG26 captured at Gardemoen:

Presumably the WNr. of the A-17 should have some extra digits?

Hello AndyMa,

Thank you for this additional werknummer detail about this A-17. I did not know about this one either...

But the machine I was looking for do have the serial 3795 on the front nose painted and the KG 3 squadron emblem badge clearly visible...so it may be related to the first machine that Matti found the details. I had 20% of damages for the accident, but Matti's info (always first class and precise) do says 70%. The pilot was injured...which confirm the 70% version.
