Erich do you know the true figure of Doras that were produced?

Brain32 · 06-17-2007, 06:27 PM

BTW guys I don't know if this is right or wrong, but this books are not the only or my primary source for those figures, it's just the only thing I have about the whole deal "on paper". If anybody can provide another insight on this matter, I'm very interested, being a FW nutcase and all that

Chris the Dora numerations will be covered in the 4 volumes by JaPo and Eagle editions

for me no I do not nor do I wish too...........again my thing is the operations more than the a/c though that is of interest just not the tech aspects which there is nothing wrong with that.

note the Cottbus/Kassel makes of the STurmFw's of the A-8 series produced with werk nummer # 620 as a start and ending with the prefix 683...

Looking at these scanned pages it looks like they counted the allocated serial numbers together without any proof all of these aircraft were actually produced.

That is what I am thinking as well. I dont believe that more than 684 Doras were actually built.

Don't know, this is the very first place I saw 684 figure, I was always shown 1805 one, we need some reliable data...

And another source, to my understanding it shows how much literature often states to be produced in relation to what was produced.

Well this certainly will be interesting if we could figure out the truth.
