Re: Luftwaffe losses 24 July 1941
Of interest, Sunrise cost the RAF 10 Wellingtons destroyed, 6 Wellingtons damaged, two Hampdens destroyed, one damaged, five Halifaxes destroyed and three damaged plus two Spitfires destroyed. Initial German claims were three Wellingtons and a Hampden to Flak at Brest, 3 Halifaxes at La Pallice. Fighters initially claimed 11 Wellingtons, 4 Hampdens and three Spitfires at Brest (as well as a Stirling which could have been a I./KG 40 Fw 200) and 11 Halifaxes at La Pallice. German losses were seven Bf 109s destroyed, four damaged. As you say, bombers were responsible for some-the four damaged and one of the destroyed for starters
