Ta 152 H-1 'Green 8 + ' of Stab J.G. 301, Alteno, Germany, April 1945
Ta 152 H-1 'Green 8 + ' served with Oberstleutnant Fritz Aufhammer's Stab J.G. 301, and was from the 150 ... block of aircraft built by Focke-Wulf at Sorau between December 1944 and April 1945. Ta 152 H-1s saw very limited service at war's end, with the Geschwaderstab and III. Gruppe of J.G. 301. To demonstrate how limited the type's service was, on 11 April 1945, the Stab J.G. 301 had just seven Ta 152s (three serviceable), and III./J.G. 301 had six (three serviceable).^[1]
