Loss Lists for Stukagruppen on the Eastern Front during Barbarossa

[Jason]

Gents,
I'm trying to determine how many Ju 87Rs were in service in the East during the Barbarossa campaign. I have the loss list for IV.(St.)/LG 1 from the LG 1 history, but I'm wondering if any others have survived/are available. Anybody have any info/pointers for me?

These losses exist and are in possession of a few people.I hope that one
day it will be share to all of us.

In my book "Barbarossa: The Air War", which will be published by Ian Allan in 2007, you will find a table with the monthly losses for each Luftwaffe Geschwader (including the Stukageschwader) on the Eastern Front during Operation Barbarossa.

Jason,

to my knowledge there are no reports on the distribution of different types of the Ju 87 within the Stukageschwader for the 1941 period. The "Bewegungslisten" with such information only beginn in March 1942.

Perhaps the losses reported to the Generalquartiermeister can give you an answer to your question:

GQM reports a total of 319 Stukas lost or damaged on the Ostfront in 1941. Of these 13 were listed without any subtype, 71 were B-1, 43 were B-2, 16 were R-1, 105 were R-2 and 71 were R-4. This makes 113 B-type Stukas compared to 192 R-type. So the distribution whas roughly 1/3 Bs and 2/3 Rs.

From 22. June 41 to the end of that year another more than 200 Stukas were reported lost or damaged fighting against Commonwealth-troops in the MTO.

Thanks for the info, Carl! Would it be possible to get an extract by month and by gruppen, if it's convenient? I'd be willing to pay a reasonable amount for the data.
Christer, I'll be looking forward to your new book although it does seem a long time away! I'll be happy enough to get Vol. 3 of BC/RS in my grubby little hands sometime soon.
