Hello Adriano,

Since the task of I./KG27 on 15.10.41 was to attack railways, the probability that WNr 4222 was hit at low altitude is high. Unfortunately, I am poorly acquainted with Soviet documents relating to this time and place. An attempt to quickly find something in the documents available online on the "Pamyat Naroda" was unsuccessful. Therefore, I do not know exactly where the plane was hit and how long it flew after that.

Cheers,
Andrey
