It was provided to me so I don't feel free to make the document available. I am sure I have seen it on this site. I will look for it.

Well, I looked. For some reason I cannot "search" worth a darn. The member I got this from, Soren, has been banned and chart I remembered as being posted, has been deleted. I am sure others have the chart and may share. I am just a bit queasy about doing it.

Eric, do you have a copy of the FW airspeed comparison chart I have been referencing?

Agreed.
The poster in question is what I refer to as a member of the tinfoil hat brigade.
There's no way to reliably know how many allied a/c were shot down by advanced FW's. The TA was allegedly a fine a/c but there's some evidence of reliability problems.

I hope you're not referring to Erich - as a newbe I suggest you read the thread for newcomers and understand we do not tolerate anyone insulting moderators. This will be you one and only warning.

He said to much here and in another foolish non researched post, he is history.

Yep - I seen that coming.

Yeah, it does sound pretty weak.

ADIK reports cover the Ta 152H-0 and H-1 in entirety

I agree with this. No fighter aircraft operational during the spring of 1945 can touch the Me-262 as an interceptor. That includes the Meteor F3.

how many ta 152 made it to combat
Erich
the old Sage
just to give you a figure: 35 TA 152H's were given to III./JG 301 at January 1945's end from this I am still not certain how many stayed in III. gruppe and in the Stab./JG 301.
remember the design role for the Tank was suppose to be able to perform ideally at the heights of the P-51D/K and not actually engage US bomber formations

On Jan 27 1945 pilots of III./JG301 traveled to Cottbus and picked up 11 Ta152H-0s. On Jan 16 1945 American fighters attacked Neuhausen and destroyed 14 Ta152s on the ground. There was ~12 Ta152s assigned to Rechlin. In addition, 2 more Ta152Hs were sent to Sorau for conversion to Ta152Cs. That accounts for approximately 4/5 of the Ta152Hs built.
III./JG301 never got close to the authorized number of 35 Ta152H a/c.

I read somewhere, possibly on this forum that 2 ta152's were shot down by spitfires whilst being delivered?
does that jog any memories?

The 4th FG claimed a bunch of Fw 190s destroyed at Neuhausen. Obviously they looked like 190/190Ds
Erich

Milosh yes you are correct, I was not specific enough to clarify; the pilots were actually quite upset either to have the Fw 190A-8 for bomber control or the Ta 152H to engage P-51's so a small mix of Ta's in the III. gruppe during 45. As you said the Ta's never came in full numbers even when asked over and over again, even for spare parts.
have not hear personally that any Ta's were shot down by any Allied A/c. we do have documentation about accidents while in the testing phase.
