Rob, very interesting, I always thought that very few were built (like 30 to 40), mainly used in the N. African/Italian campagins, and for that reason and its obvious vulnerability nothing was ever left of them to be found. By reading the article I was quite surprised to learn that there were a little over 200 built. Are there records of their usage on the eastern/western front? Thanks for sharing the info.

From what I've read the RAF knew the Luftwaffe were coming over by reading the German signals - Engima
