Many thanks again Matti!

Here are two more DB605 engines that have survived and I have worked on and I have run both these engines in 109's!
First DB605A-1 77563. Captured in N.Africa '42/'43. Returned to UK. Fitted to Bf109G-2Trop 10639.
Next, the only running DB605D 011101639. Found stored in '80s. Restored and fitted in Han's Dittes Bf109G-10 rebuild.
Cheers

And for you Dénes,
Thank you too for the new-to-me DB605 photo.

Thank you Matti for sharing! This data is gold for me
Most of my data was taken from Crashed enemy aircraft reports and similar documents which contain the DB605 serial number and producer code of the engine. When the compiled data started to grow I could cross reference the information and noticed a pattern in the first digits of the engine's serial number which correlate to the engine producer and later also to the engine subtype. This pattern can also be found within the DB601 serial numbers.

@Dénes, the recovered DB605 from the photo above is an A-1 produced by Henschel-Flugmotorenbau GmbH, Kassel (code hsr). The WNr. fits nicely between two other engines that were delivered from Bulgaria to Yugoslavia postwar.

@Schwarze-man, I don't have any total numbers on the Hungarian DB605 production, but I can tell you that a have only a few serial numbers from their production recorded, so I guess your numbers could be correct.

DB engines in Bf 110 and Me 410.

Matti,

Any chance you have a DB603 listing?

Thanks, Tony

Tony,

Unfortunately not. My info is arranged according to aircraft types and versions and not according to engine models.

Hello Matti and Tony,
First, thanks yet again Matti for the additional DB-engine compendium.
To Tony, the Me410 Motornummern listed in Matti’s newest list are DB603s.
