My question would be, what radar that wasn't being jammed did they have that they were able to equip a dozen a/c? The Li B/C and C1 were being jammed, and the Li 220 wasn't yet available. So, else did they have?
Dear George,
I am getting more and more convinced that my issue is a matter of wrong terminology. Attached is an extract from a staff meeting in I JK 20 OCT 1943. Here it stated how important it is to have the SN 2 fitted to the nightfighters, since it is a requirement for the conduct of WILDE SAU. The SN 2 was being pressed into service since it worked in a frequency band, which for a while at least, was unaffected by allied ECM, and hence it would greatly enhance the ability to conduct Zahme Sau. I would suggest in the KTB for Wilde Sau please read Zahme Sau throughout at least up to 1 NOV 1943.
