Henschel Hs 124 Travemunde

[musec04]

Hello Stig,

Horst Materna lists V1,V2 and V3 with Wnr 4, 5 and 6 respectively.
He further states that 19 Hs 122 A-0 were built, but that the remaining 27planned Hs 122 A-1 " nur in Baugruppen weiter zu bauen sind"

He states that the only isolated examples of the Hs 122 were used by schools and for testing.

I'm aware of the E-Stelle Travemunde based TI+HI, which presumably would be the V-1 formerly D-IISI but not of the employment of any of the prototypes or other Hs 122 A-0.Has anyone further information on post September 1939 users of the Hs 122?

Regards,

Clint

Hi Clint
As far as I can tell the Henschel W/Nrs were arranged as

1 - Hs 121a (V1)
2 - Hs 125 V1 - D-EKAN
3 - Hs 125 V2 - D-IEHA
4 - Hs 122 V1 - D-UQEV
5 - Hs 122 V2 - D-UBYN
6 - Hs 122 V3 - D-UDIZ
7 - Hs 121 V2 - D-EOVA

The 2nd & 3rd airframes intended for the Hs 121 V2-V3 were utilized for the Hs 125 V1&V2
But it would seem that Henschel did allocate another airframe for the Hs 121 V2.
Are these listed in the Materna book as laid out above?
Also Clint the Hs 122A D-IISI would most likely have been the 1st airframe of the A series tested at Est Travemunda. The W/Nr was 645

Hello Tom,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, Materna gives the WNr exactly as you have.

Thanks also for the correction on my misplaced assumption about D-ISII.

Have yo come across Stkz for any of the other Hs.122 A-0 in you researches?

Regards,

Clint
