Operation Wikinger
Operation ''Wikinger'' ((ドイツ語:Viking))〔(Operation ''Wikinger'' )〕 was a sortie into the North Sea by German World War II destroyers (1st Destroyer Flotilla) of the ''Kriegsmarine'', in February 1940. During this operation, poor inter-service communication and cooperation between the ''Kriegsmarine'' and the ''Luftwaffe'' and inexperience resulted in the loss of two German ships through friendly fire bombing and German or British mines. No Allied forces were involved.
==Background==
On February 1940, the ''Kriegsmarine'' had grown suspicious of the activities of British fishing vessels around the Dogger Bank. ''Luftwaffe'' reconnaissance flights reported the presence of submarines, so it was decided to intercept the British vessels with the six destroyers of the 1st Destroyer Flotilla: ''Friedrich Eckoldt'' (flotilla leader), ''Richard Beitzen'', ''Erich Koellner'', ''Theodor Riedel'', ''Max Schultz'' and ''Leberecht Maass'', escorted by ''Luftwaffe'' fighters.
At about the same time, ''X. Fliegerkorps'' of the ''Luftwaffe'' planned to execute a postponed anti-shipping operation over the North Sea, using two squadrons of Heinkel 111 bombers.
The ''Kriegsmarine'' had been denied its own air wing ("''Marineflieger''") and was dependent upon the ''Luftwaffe'' for air support, which remained under direct Luftwaffe control. Exchanges of information and plans and requests for support had to traverse a lengthy command chain.
