This B-17G "Trojan Horse" was used for deep penetration
boming missions against the Allies, This captured allied aircraft bombed allied targets in England. It would follow
returning bombers at night get past anti aircraft
defences, and successfully bomb it's targets! Then return home to Germany which was no easy task, because german flack
batteries sometimes shot at the returning aircraft. The I/KG 200 also had special groups that would disperse to
the scene of a downed U.S. plane to recover fuel and parts to keep These"Birds" flying(which was by all means no easy
task, US fighters often straithed there downed planes).
