Notes:
The aircraft flew with the 13 (Z)/JG5 based at Kemijarvi in Northern Finland and was coded LN+NR. At January 11th 1943 the plane was sent on a mission together with three other Me 110 to attack the railway line Murmansk-Leningrad piloted by Lt. Ziegenhagen with his observer/gunner/radio operator Uffz. Kirchmayer. The attacked train was equipped with anti aircraft guns and the LN+NR was damaged followed by a forced landing on a frozen lake. The crew was rescued the next day, but the plane sunk after the ice melted and stayed into the water, until it was salvaged in 1992.
