Hungarian mysterious Ju 188D-1 reconnaissance plane question
Hello,
many years I have collected and research the Hungarian Flying history. (My grandfather was a pilot in WWII in the Hungarian airforce). Now I would like to ask some Luftwaffe expert to clear out this question. I found two different source about the 4pcs. Hungarian Ju 188D-1 Long reconnaissance plane from Hungarian Wings yearbook. Both of them are different. 1) From Franz A Vajda: December of 1944 the Hungarians ordered 4pc Ju 188D-1 and three replacement Jumo motors. Junkers permit higher authority. 12th January 1945 rejected the request to the RDL. What is not clear from the documents that the Hungarian Ministry of Defence turned immediately turn through Füterer to Air Marshall Göring. However, it is shown in the document, that on 14 January the Oberbefehlshaber der Luftwaffe, Hermann Göring therefore left the machines and engines are delivered from 15 January. This document show Ju 188D-1 WNr production numbers /0576, 0580, 0583, 0601/ and the type of engines Jumo 213A-1 /103856, 103861, 103872/ (marked by red square). It is could be the German delivery from they equipment or its certified reserves offered. The Generalquartiermeister - as is also the case file – 25 January 1945, closed the file, so the machines have been delivered. Possible delivery location Érsekújvár (Novy Zámky) or Wiener-Neustadt. It is not clear yet. 2) From Janos A Peterdi F.Lt „Finally, four Hungarians Ju-188 got for the allocation of the paper only. In reality, the machine has not been received. Maybe it was the Germans intend to allocate a Ju-188 for the Hungarians, but this was never carried out not because the war intervened.” Somebody have different souce or other info about the above mentioned text? Was this WNr numbers in Dessau? Could be the Jumo engine number? I did not find other info above: http://hugojunkers.pytalhost.com/ju_home.htm; http://hugojunkers.pytalhost.com/ju_jumo213_a1.htm Jumo Produktion Figures: http://hugojunkers.pytalhost.com/ju_jumo213_p1.htm Waiting for a replay. Best regards, Balazs Garai |
