Wasn't the Do335 officially a bomber?


Usually listed as a zerstroyer, heavy fighter.

I note you quote II/KG2, a bomber
unit.


A friend purchased a couple photos of 335s sitting next to a hangar and I
noticed they weren't the usual 3-4 airframes that were often depicted at
Dornier AG. They came with a letter from a GI home to momma, telling about the
odd planes. The letter talked about how the captured airmen stated they had
flown "a few missions" but no engagements in the 335. There were no bomb racks
on the B models, but I think only As (fighter bombers primarily) made it to
units.
