The special high-altitude Staffeln 11.(Höhen)/ JG 2 and 11.(Höhen)/ JG 26 were formed in 1942 with pressurized Bf 109G-1s equipped with GM-1
boost. 11.(H)/ JG 2 was attached to I/JG 2 and in 9/43 it was redesignated 4./JG 2. 11.(H)/ JG 26 was attached to III/JG 26 and in 10/43 it officially
became part of III/JG 26. They are left in the game to denote their high-altitude special duty.
2
Heavy-fighter units (Bf 110, Me 410, Ju 88) were either disbanded or converted to single-engine fighter units by Autumn 1944. You may choose to
convert to a single-engine fighter as directed by the Starting Units and Bases Chart [R1] (you don’t need to spend Prestige Points) or you can retain your
heavy-fighter if you wish (and dare).
3
If you are assigned to II/ZG 76, you can fly the Bf 110G-2/R3 w. Wf.Gr.21 at Neubiberg (Munich bases) or, as an optional start, fly the Me 410A-1/U2
at Hildesheim (Bremen bases).
4
Kommando Nowotny was formed from Erprobungskommando (EKdo) 262 (the test unit of the Me 262A), and III/ZG 26. Led by 258-kill ace Maj.
Walter Nowotny, the unit had to establish the tactics of the new jet fighter and to overcome the initial teething problems of the Me 262. When Maj.
Nowotny died in November 1944, the unit was renamed III/JG 7. Although JG 7 began receiving their Me 262s in November-December 1944, the game
lets you use the Me 262 from July 1944, assuming your unit is still part of EKdo 262 and later Kommando Nowotny, and is operating the jet fighter in
very limited numbers. You may fly only four missions per month from July 1944 to September 1944. You may fly eight missions per month normally
from October 1944 (see 11.7).
5
After being dismissed as General der Jagdflieger for criticizing Herman Göring and Luftwaffe policies, Gen. Adolf Galland was allowed to form a new
fighter unit equipped with Me 262s. Experten from all units among the Luftwaffe joined Jagdverband 44 (JV 44), which soon was known as the
Squadron of Experts. Reassignment to JV 44 requires being a Knight’s Cross holder.
6
Erprobungsgruppe (EGR) 335 was the test unit of the Do 335. It performed test flights of Do 335A-0 prototypes from September 1944. Although the
standard A-1 version was introduced in January 1945, if you are assigned to EGR 335 you may fly the Do 335 from 9/44. Assume you are in an A-0
prototype. You may fly only four missions per month due to the small number of prototypes (see 11.6).
7
If you transfer to EGR 229, due to the very limited number of Go 229 prototypes, if you your Go 229A-0 is lost it is substituted with a He 162A-2.
You may upgrade to the Go 229A-0 again if desired by spending Prestige Points (see 11.9).
