Kriegstärkenachweisung K.St.N. 1212(L) in 1945
Best wishes to all! Can anybody help me with the following, longstanding, problem:
if a Luftwaffe Nachtschlacht unit was formed according to K.St.N. 1212 (L) in 1945, with what type of aircraft would it have been equipped? Thank you! Hans Mcilveen |

Hello Hans,
most likely the Fw 190 G-3, G-8/R5 or F-8 or the Ju 87 D-3 or D-5. Those were the aircraft mostly used by Nachtschlacht units in 1945. There were other types used by NSGr. like the Ar 66, Go 145, He 46, but I doubt it. Especially considering the state of the war and the sophistication of the enemy on the western front. Regards, Norbert |

Re: Kriegstärkenachweisung K.St.N. 1212(L) in 1945
Hello Norbert,
Thank you for your response. I agree that the types you mention are the most likely. Let me elaborate: I have a document in which the order is given for the Schlachtstaffel of the ROA airforce (Vlasov airforce or VVS-KONR) to convert to a Nachtschlachtstaffel. In the document the Kriegstärkenachweisung (table of equipment) for the Schlachtstaffel is K.St.N. 1257(L) which I understand is for a Ju 87 equipped unit. The K.St.N. for the Nachschlachtstaffel is 1212(L). I am not sure about the intended aircraft equipment for the Nachtschlachtstaffel but it could be the Ju 88, unlikely as this may seem. I was wondering if anybody had came across this K.St.N. in original documents and could confirm the above. Regards, Hans Mcilveen |
