Re: B-25 used by VVS as night bomber?
Gabor , yes Long Range were not attached to specific fronts, basically I don't think that B-25's were under DD groups .Ca-135 indeed , wasn't aware.

Re: B-25 used by VVS as night bomber?
Thank you very much Gabor! I did not know anything about the crew at all. Do you know something about the rest of the crew or from where they took off?
Gv. Lt. Smirnov of 14. GvBAP also took part on a raid that night. Tinyakov was with the 238. GvBAP - so we know at least about two regiments airborne over Wr. Neustadt that night. Some locals report about seeing 2 waves of aircraft each of approx. 12 planes over the target area flying really low. I wonder if that was a combined raid against Wr. Neustadt and Sopron by only 14. and 238. GvBAP's. Or were there more? I don't know much about 18. VA habits... |
