He 177 A "F8+BS" der 8./KG 40 ?




He 177 A "F8+BS" of 8./KG 40 ??? 1943/44. 'F8' code for KG 40 and the 'S' for 8. Staffel. Only problem with this identification is that III./KG 40 was not equipped with the He 177. Another possibility is 'V4' for KG 1, making this an 8./KG 1 machine. Click to view large
