Info Needed, Bf 110C C?+NJ

[pstrany]

Hi;

I'm trying to locate information on sub-model, serial number and full manufacturers code for a Messerschmitt Bf 110C with a partial code of C?+NJ. I BELIEVE the second letter many be "F", but I cannot be positive. There is a picture of this bird in Volume 1 of Murawski's book (Kagero) on the 110. There is another aircraft behind it with a code that appears to be ?F+NR, which is why I theorize the second letter may be "F" as well.

Also, I need to know if the serial number would have been painted on the rear fuselage prior to painting (C?+NJ is unfinished, can't see the rear fuselage. ?F+NR behind it is already camouflaged, and the serial number appears on the rear fuselage forward of the tailplane in white (unfortunately unreadable.))

Any info greatly appreciated!
