Europe operations with 192 sqn.No.192 Squadron was formed on 4 January 1943 as a radar counter-measures squadron. It was essentially a research unit, involved in identifying the types of radar being used by the Germans. This was by no means a safe role, for the research flights had to take place over Germany and occupied Europe, where the German radar was operating against Bomber Command. The squadron also operated over the Bay of Biscay. In November 1944 the squadron attempted to find the radio signals believed to be controlling the V-2 rocket, as the Allies were then unaware that the rocket contained its own guidance system. .
