Ludwig Becker (22 August 1911 – 26 February 1943). One of the best night fighter pilots of the Luftwaffe, he developed tactics to counteract night raids on Germany by British bombers. He participated in tests of the first radars, won the first victory using "dark interception" (using radar). Becker destroyed about 30 enemy bombers. Becker died because of a mistake by his commanders, who decided to engage night fighters to repel daytime attacks by American bombers. On February 26, 1943, 12 night fighters attacked a group of B-24 Liberator heavy bombers over Helgoland Bay. The only German fighter shot down in that battle was the plane of the commander, Hauptmann Becker. The Americans lost seven bombers. Later on, the Luftwaffe night fighters suffered significant losses because the erroneous order to use them in the daytime was never rescinded.
