Identifying Aircraft Involved in Uboat Search

Gents,

I have been reading a report from a surface escort group who were involved in a search for a uboat. The escort group commander states that they were directed to a possible submerged target by aircraft 962W12. This aircraft was using sono buoy's to detect the submerged targets. Later in the same search this particular aircraft was relieved by W5 who was in turn relieved by W7. The date was February 1945.

It does not look like a serial number and perhaps it may be a call sign, any assitance would be greastly appreciated.

Regards,

Mark
