Re: AAA Claims by US Army of Luftwaffe aircraft
In the UK National Archives are copies of the monthly SHAEF Air Defense Review which have similar content to Ed’s posting, but these are only on paper.
Since these were published, not just filed,, I’d imagine that copies would survive in one or more American archives as well. |

The NCA in the Dec 44/Jan 45 period has a number of NJG aircraft shot down by AA on night ground attack operations.

Re: AAA Claims by US Army of Luftwaffe aircraft
I know the NCA series, but that concerns NJ....I am trying to understand the losses of III./KG 51 (NSG 20).

Re: AAA Claims by US Army of Luftwaffe aircraft
For what it's worth, a comprehensive overview of the AA Artillery situation and a map showing the positions of AAA defenses against the V-1 in Antwerp.
