8.10.43, Allied claims over Bf110 - any info?
Hi all!
8.10.43, 14.15 - 16.00 Bf110's of I./ZG 1 and II./ZG 1 attacked British/ American bombers with strong escort. It was disaster: I./ZG 1 lost 1 Bf110 (100%), 1 pilot (5 victory ace, StaKa 1./ZG 1 Oblt.Rudiger Ossmann) and 1 bortfunker killed ; claiming 6 B-17 and 1 Typhoon. II./ZG 1 lost 9 Bf110 (8 x 100%, 1 x 20%), 6 pilots MiA (including 12 victory ace, Gr.Kdr. II./ZG 1 Hptm. Karl-Heinrich Matern, and Gr.Adj. II./ZG 1 Lt. Hans-Bodo Busch), more 2 pilots KiA, 1 pilot PoW, and 9 bortfunkerss for all reasons; claiming only 3 victoryes: P-47, Spitfire, Mitchell Are there any possible RAF claims on Bf110's over Atlantic ocean/Brest area at that time and day? Many of Bf110's noted as "shot down by Spitfires". Was it British B-25 formation covered by Spits? Best wishes!
