In a package recently received from BAMA there was a documnet detailling subject operations. Oboe equipped Mosquitos was a particular problem for the Luftnachrichten Dienst and the Luftwaffe as such. The mere detection and tracking was for a long while a problem on it’s own, but this was solved thorough NAXBURG. But detection and tracking is one thing, effective defence another. It flew faster and higher than most German nightfighters and the standard 88 mm Flak could not effectively engage the Mosquito at their operating altitude.
I was surprised to learn that enough Bf 109 and Fw 190 were produced with FuG 217 to form an entire squadron in order to counter these attacks. Please see:
