I don't think that most He 177s served on the Eastern Front. The He 177 was a complicated aircraft, maintenance was very difficult so it needed well equipped bases with hangars, concrete runways etc.

Which units used He 177s on the Eastern Front? I know of KG 1 but I don't think this unit alone could have had 700 aircraft.
