Notes:

A/C was captured and shipped to the U.S. for testing at the end of WW-II. Indications were found that this aircraft may have been sabataged while under construction, perhaps by forced laborers constructing it in Germany. It has been restored and is currently being exhibited at the USAF National Museum of Aviation.
