Actually, I don't think any of the test versions were manned. The manned ones came later, when they were developed to be used as piloted bombs (Well, the idea was that the pilot would bail out before hitting the target, but nobody was really under the impression that he had any significant chance of surviving).
They were never used in combat, of course.
