However, in 1940, the RAF switched from daylight bombing raids against Nazi targets to night bombing. This gave the Zerstörer force a window of opportunity to wreak damage on the bomber streams. Most of the German night fighter aces flew the Bf 110 at some point during their combat careers, and the top night fighter ace of all time, Major Heinz-Wolfgang Schnaufer, flew it exclusively and claimed 121 victories in 164 combat missions. Messerschmitt Bf 110 Zerstorer Aces of World War 2 (Osprey Aircraft of the Aces), John Weal. The enormous Dackelbauch ventral tank, owing to cold weather and limited knowledge of fuel vapours, sometimes exploded, leading to unexplained losses during the North Sea patrols. [71] During the Battle of Berlin, 1,128 bombers were lost in five months. Furthermore, although it had a higher top speed than contemporary RAF Hurricanes, it had poor acceleration. Suddenly, Germany needed a night fighter. On 23 November 1939, the Bf 110 claimed its first Allied victim when LG 1 Bf 110s engaged and shot down a Morane-Saulnier M.S.406 of the Armée de l'Air over Verdun. After the 18 August there was a marked reduction in the number of Zerstörer operations. Another is on display in the Deutsches Technikmuseum Berlin. In the role of ground support, and flown by seasoned pilots. The problem was that the Bf 110 was simply too vulnerable against more maneuverable single-engine fighters to survive in a combat environment. Eduard first released their excellent 1/72 scale Messerschmitt Bf 110 G-4 night fighter in 2013. the Bf 110 (particularly the version F-4) was lethal. (H)/11 and 7. The night fighter arm claimed the destruction of 123 out of some 1,179 bombers over Hamburg on one night; a 7.2% loss rate. But the Bf-110 suffered greatly in "close escort," where they were forced to lumber alongside the slow bombers, taking away their tactical edge and forcing them to always respond to the attacking fighters, which were never taken by surprise and could easily avoid the attacks of the Zerstörer, and even turn the tables. [37] The Bf 110 is a fairly popular model; whatever it's actual performance was in the war, it looks cool, especially the night-fighting versions, bristling with early radar antennae and colorful Luftwaffe insignia. Polish fighter units reported a 17% loss rate on this day. The Ruhr Area was the prime target for British bombers in 1943, and German defences inflicted a considerable loss rate. Later in the war, it was developed into a formidable night fighter, becoming the major night-fighting aircraft of the Luftwaffe. [64] The … Initially, the Bf 110 C-1 day-fighter was used in the night fighter role by NJG1, but the means of detecting enemy aircraft carried by this version was the Mk1 human eyeball which only worked at dusk or dawn or on moonlit nights. The Bf 110 force lost 23 of the 77 machines. It proved so devastatingly effective against British bombers in the winter of 1943/44 that some British raids produced unsupportable levels of casualties. However, it was better suited as a long-range bomber escort than most other aircraft of the time, and did not have the problems of restricted range that hampered the Bf 109E. Oct 8, 2015 - Here are some images of Monogram/ProModeler's 1/48 scale Messerschmitt Bf-110-G4 Night Fighter. The last day of August proved to be a rare success for the Messerschmitt Bf 110. A number of Bf 110 aces were lost in aerial combat during this period, and other losses were considerable. [18], During the Phoney War, a number of French aircraft were shot down by Bf 110s. Oberleutnant Johannes Kiel was credited with 62 aircraft destroyed on the ground, plus nine tanks and 20 artillery pieces. The Germans were engaged by several Gloster Gladiators and machine guns manned by troops on the ground; in the ensuing battle, both sides lost two aircraft. The B-17s brushed the defenses aside and delivered their loads on Wilhelmshaven, while suffering the loss of 3 aircraft. This flaw was exposed during the Battle of Britain, when some Bf 110-equipped units were withdrawn from the battle after very heavy losses and redeployed as night fighters, a role to which the aircraft was well suited. The fighter would generally target engines or fuel tanks if possible since firing directly into the bomb bay produced such a huge explosion that there was a risk of the attacker being damaged. With improved performance and armament, as well as devices which allowed them to find RAF bombers in total darkness, the last version of the Bf 110 became a lethal night fighter. The Bf 110 served the Luftwaffe extensively in various roles, though no longer in its intended role as a heavy fighter. The Messerschmitt Bf-110 was an early attempt by the Luftwaffe to develop a long range strategic fighter for deep penetration missions. Official Luftwaffe doctrine was to attack bombers from the rear and above. Of all twin engine fighters of WWII, Messerschmitt Bf 110 was the most successful, followed by Junkers Ju 88, De Havilland Mosquito and Bristol Beaufighter. Shown above is a Bf 110G-4. It was badly mauled during the battle. For example, the Zerstorer unit deployed there, the 10. Staffelkapitän Hauptmann Theodor Rossiwall and Oberleutnant Sophus Baagoe were amongst the claimers on this day, taking their scores to 12 and 14. The Bf 110Es were capable of carrying a respectable bomb load of 4,410 lb (2,000 kg) as fighter-bombers, while straight fighter and … The fighter would maneuver below a bomber, often being able to see the aircraft silhouetted against the night sky above. In the spring of 1940, Walter Horten, Jagdgeschwader 26 technical officer, was invited to participate in a "mock combat" with a Bf 109E. The power of its twin engines allowed it to lift greater loads than a single engine fighter. By 1943, many British bombers were fitted with a system code-named ‘Monica,’ a detector designed to warn the bomber that an aircraft behind was searching for them using radar. About five Bf 110s were shot down by Swiss Bf 109s. (Z)/JG 5, achieved an important victory on 10 May 1942 when six of its Bf 110s, which were escorting Ju 88s of the KG 30, ran into a formation of six Soviet SB-2 bombers escorted by nine Hurricanes of the 2 GSAP. The Bf 110 served with success in the early campaigns in Poland, Norway and France. [18] In late 1943 and early 1944 Bf 110 formations were frequently devastated by the roving Allied fighters. This version was fitted with FuG 202 Liechtenstein air interception radar which had an effective maximum range of 3-4 kilometers (1.8-2.4 miles), and it carried a third crewman to act as a radar operator. In the mid-1930s, there was a great deal of interest in the concept of the heavy fighter, namely a fighter aircraft with at least two engines which would give improved survivability in combat as well as possess the ability to carry heavier weapons and have a longer range. The Bf 110 also supported the German defence during Big Week in February 1944, as Lt. Gen. Doolittle's tactical changes for the 8th Air Force's escort fighters (increasingly consisting of P-51 Mustangs) went into effect: The experiences of Zerstörergeschwader "Horst Wessel", a Bf 110 squadron, indicates what happened to twin-engine fighters in the new combat environment. [56] Several attacks from the beam were made, and eventually a break in the formation opened a gap which Hans-Joachim Jabs and his wingman took advantage of. Despite help from Bf 109 units, it was the Bf 110 which excelled in the bomber destroyer role. Some also featured yet another way of locating RAF bombers. This system became known as Schraege Musik (strange music or slanted music). The Bf 110s flew alone against this formation and destroyed four B-17s, before having the misfortune of running into 56th Fighter Group P-47 Thunderbolts. At the start of the war the aircraft had an impressive reputation, which survived to the end of the French campaign but faded once the aircraft had to face modern fighters. [63] But wereas the Ju 87 had to be withdrawn because it simply could not survive in the hostile environment over southern England in the late summer of 1940, the reason for the decrease in Bf 110 activity was much more mundane. Only one month later, ZG 1 and ZG 2 had lost 31 Bf 110s (all to Soviet fighters), plus five more of the recce units to the same cause. In September 1943, Arthur Harris, convinced that a strategic bombing campaign against Germany's cities would force a German collapse, pressed for further mass attacks. At 12:13 pm on February 20, 13 Bf 110s scrambled after approaching formations. However, on 4 and 27 September, 15 Bf 110s were lost on each day. [67] The losses had "marked the beginning of the end of the Bf 110 Zerstörer as a first-line weapon in the RLV". See more ideas about Messerschmitt, Luftwaffe, Ww2 aircraft. The first units undertook defence operations over Germany as early as the autumn of 1940. Many Nachtjagdgeschwader had taken part in costly daylight battles of attrition. In response, the Bf 110 F-4/U-1 variant was fitted with a completely new weapon system. The Luftwaffe began the battle with 237 Bf 110s and it lost more than 200 in combat over England in the late summer of 1940. By April 1944, the Oberkommando der Luftwaffe had hoped to convert the Bf 110 Geschwader to the Me 410. Some of the most successful were Leutnant Eduard Meyer, who received the Knight's Cross on 20 December 1941 for 18 aerial victories and 48 aircraft destroyed on the ground, as well as two tank kills. Messerschmitt Bf-110 The Messerschmitt Bf 110 ‘Zerstörer’ (‘Destroyer’) was truly a jack of all trades, but it was as a night fighter it did best. [38] On 29 September 1942, while on patrol alone, Oberleutnant Helmut Haugk of ZG 26 engaged a formation of 11 B-24s, dispatching two of the bombers. On 4 October 1943, the Bf 110 Geschwader intercepted B-17s of the 3rd Bomb Division. [65] [60], In autumn 1943, the Zerstörergruppen were recalled from their Eastern or Mediterranean bases, and formed into RLV units. During this time, a number of United States Army Air Forces B-24 Liberators were destroyed. Once again, the Bf 110 encountered foreign flown Messerschmitt Bf 109s, this time belonging to the Yugoslav Air Force. [29], The worst day of the battle for the Bf 110 was 15 August 1940, when nearly 30 Bf 110s were shot down, the equivalent of an entire Gruppe. Two MG FF 20-millimeter cannon were mounted in the rear part of the cockpit pointing upward and forward at an angle of around 80°. Lack losses suffered during the Battle of Britain caused the Bf 110 to spend the rest of WWII as night fighter. in the Messerschmitt Bf 110 G-4, C9 + EN night fighter. However, while crews found the Me 410 faster in "raw speed", they found it even less agile than the Bf 110 and very difficult to bail out of. JGr 2 also claimed 28 aerial and 50 ground victories.[6]. Thefirst factor was that, as discussed below, the development of the Me 210turned out to be drastically "snakebitten", leading to a major politicalcontroversy and an equally major redesign that would result eventually in theMe 410 -- a good aircraft, but much too late. One of the most notable actions of the Bf 110 occurred on the night of the 17/18 August 1943. It never flew another mission in this capacity. Its shortcomings were to become its strong points in dealing with the British. [10] Some sources claim a 12th Wellington was destroyed. And once they get to know the Bf 110s weaknesses, you could be in for a very nasty surprise. The Bf 109 bested the Bf 110 time and again. In the early part of the war, on the eastern front and against early unescorted American daylight bombing attacks on Germany, it scored some successes. Photo: Bundesarchiv, Bild 101I-377-2801-013 / Jakobsen [Jacobsen] / CC-BY-SA 3.0During the invasion of Poland, Norway, and Denmark, the Zerstörer performed well. Several different external fuel tanks, originally a 1,200 L (320 US gal) centerline ventral fuel tank (nicknamed Dackelbauch (dachshund's belly), later 300 L or 900 L (240 US gal) underwing-mounted tanks, resulted in no less than four versions of the Bf 110D. The Bf 110 had demonstrated its capability in a role it was to excel in over Europe. The extreme power of the Bf 110's weaponry (when fitted with 20mm and 30mm cannon) could cripple or destroy any Allied bomber in seconds. It was also intended as a long range escort for bombers, as an interceptor against enemy bomber formations, and as a light bomber and ground attack aircraft. It had a range of 1,500 miles (compared to just 400 miles for the Bf 109), it was almost as fast as most single engine fighters, and it was armed with up to four 20mm MG FF cannon plus four MG 17, 7.92mm machine guns in its nose, giving it more firepower than any other contemporary fighter. During this campaign, Victor Mölders, brother of the famous Werner Mölders, took the official surrender of the town of Aalborg after landing at the local airfield. Total production: 6050 units. [23] This represented 32 percent of the Zerstörerwaffe's initial strength. One Danish Fokker C.V did manage to get airborne but was immediately shot down. [5] In the North African Campaign, the Bf 110 acted as a support aircraft for the Junkers Ju 87 Stuka units. The Aviation Shoppe offers this awesome blueprint of the Bf 110, as shown up above. Then came the Battle of Britain and suddenly, the Bf 110 didn’t look as invincible as it had previously. [27], The Battle of Britain revealed the Bf 110's fatal weaknesses as a daylight fighter against single-engine aircraft. Using this, NJG 5's Leutnant Peter Erhardt destroyed four bombers in 30 minutes. American fighters had jumped the 13 Bf 110s from the sun and shot down 11. When these units returned to the Reich, they were depleted and required reforming, retraining and re-equipping. [32] The heavy guns and high speeds of these aircraft allowed many German pilots to claim ace status while at the helm of the Bf 110. RAF Bomber Command had "nearly burned out". [2][26] In the Western Campaign, 60 were lost. The Messerschmitt pilots did not know that many earlier waves of transports had turned back and that the airport was unsecured. Rome: IBN editore, 1996. de Zeng, H.L., D.G. Revell offers a 1/32 Messerschmitt BF 110-C4/B Model Kit. "Destroyers in Second World War". This engagement saw the death of 50-victory ace Marmaduke Pattle of No 33 Squadron. The Dornier Do-17Z and Junkers Ju-88-C2 were both considered but the aircraft chosen for the first Nachtjaeger (Night Fighter) Squadron was the Bf 110. A third is displayed in a private museum northwest of Helsingoer, Denmark. After that, the Bf 110 was generally relegated to a ground-attack role, though it did enjoy some success as a fighter during the early stages of the German invasion of Russia in 1941. We flew these missions at no greater than Schwarm strength, and were ourselves never escorted. P-38 failed abysmally at ETO, having 0.77 to 1 kill ratio. Landing their cargoes, many transports were destroyed. Prior to this we had only seen a handful of 1/72 scale Messerschmitt Bf 110 G releases over the decades. The German night fighter Messerschmitt Bf.110G-4 captured by American troops in the airfield parking lot. One of the Bf 110 pilots killed during the battle was Herman Göring’s nephew, Hans-Joachim Göring. The targets around Frankfurt and the Saar region were hit. Messerschmitt Bf 110 Type: Heavy fighter plane, Zerstörer (destroyer), fighter-bomber, night fighter History: During the 1930s, One, a Bf 110 G-4 night fighter that had been surrendered to the Allies in May 1945 at Grove airfield in Denmark, is displayed at RAF Museum London at Hendon in North London, United Kingdom. [69] Its weight (almost four tons) meant that it lacked maneuverability and acceleration compared to British Spitfire and Hurricane fighters. The Bf 110 became part of the German rearmament program and military buildup of the 1930s, utilizing a two-engine heavy fighter design form that many national air forces of the period pursued in one form or another. [34] Against the heavily gunned B-17s, crews knew such attacks were suicidal. On 13 June 1940, a squadron of Skua dive bombers was intercepted trying to reach and bomb the German battleship Scharnhorst. This book concentrates on the career of the Bf 110 as a daylight fighter. I(Z)./LG 1 also contributed. It was also used as a ground attack aircraft, starting with the C-4/B model, and as a day bomber interceptor, where its heavy firepower was particularly useful. The bomber, however, had no visibility below and would be unable to see the Bf 110 as it slid into position. One is the Bf 110G-4 night fighter flown by Major Heinz Wolfgang Schnaufer the Kommodore of NJG 4, which carries 105 victory markings on the fin. The second raid 4 February was mounted against the marshaling yards at Hamm. Most predominantly the BF-110/Me-110 Zerstörer – German for "Destroyer". Its only drawback was that early night fighter versions were barely faster than the bombers they were trying to intercept. Its size and weight meant that it had high wing loading, which limited its maneuverability. I. and III./ZG 76 were based in Austria, and II./ZG 76 was based in France. (H)/31, 3. Most of these victories were scored by Bf 110s – Ju-88s were also being used in the night fighter role, but these were often used in long-range intruder operations over England and most of the defense of the Reich fell to the Messerschmitt. [8] RAF Bomber Command sent 22 Vickers Wellington bombers to attack the German naval base at Wilhelmshaven. On 9 July 1940, seven out of a force of 12 Bristol Blenheims bombing Stavanger were shot down by a mixed force of Bf 110s and Bf 109s from ZG 76 and JG 77 respectively.[17]. The airframe allowed for a dedicated radar operator, and the open nose had space for radar antennae, unlike the single-engine fighters.
