After taking part in the Battle of Kursk, SG 1 returned to Crimea, and there during late spring 1944, they finally gave up the aircraft that had served all over Europe from Spain to Leningrad.
Po tom, co se zúčastnila bojů u Kurska, se SG1 vrátila na Krym a tam během pozdního jara 1944 nakonec vyřadila letadlo, které si počínalo dobře nad celou Evropou, od Španělska po Leningrad.
