He 111P W.Nr. 2143?
Hello.
I'm looking for any information on He 111P W.Nr. 2143 as it is mentioned in this document https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/...283085/zooms/3 as belonging to 5./KG 4 (code 5J+EN) in the beginning of the polish campaign, missing on 01.09.1939 on a mission to Lemberg (Lwow), crew Uffz. Klenk, Hölscher, Stolz and Stock. Same source page 38 https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/...283105/zooms/3 this loss is given as He 111P W.Nr. 1549. Rather confusing. Can someone help? BR Gunnar - Bf 110 -

Thank you guys so far.
I'm still interested in the fate of W.Nr. 2143. Maybe this is another loss of KG 4 in the polish campaign? I don't know. Gunnar - Bf 110 -

Hi Gunnar
From data previously supplied WNr 2143 was in a rather large batch, all delivered to KG 55. I have nothing in particular on that aircraft myself, so a dead end I'm afraid. Cheers Stig |

Seems like previous info received by me was wrong even if quite a few WNr around 2143 did go to KG 55.... Sorry about that... Cheers Stig |

Hello Charles, thanks for this information. What irritates me, is, that KG 3 was equipped with Do 17 in 1939, so they should not have had He 111P. I guess there's some mixing up in this documents or typing error. BR Gunnar - Bf 110 -
