In January 1942 II./NJG1 transferred to Sint-Truiden/Sint-Trond Belgium at a time when the RAF was re-evaluating the success of their operations against Germany as well as bad weather for the first few months of the year meant the need for night fighters was at a low. In February 1942 scoreless II./NJG1 moved to Koksijde so they could take part in what would be "Operation Cerberus", the successful breakout from Brest to Germany of the battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau and heavy cruiser Prince Eugen.
