I guess not many.
But that is not my reason for correcting range and involvement of FW200, and other German maritime planes.
I read book "Fw200 Condor vs Atlantic Convoy 1941-43"... And there you can see dozen situation of attacking convoys by subs and planes. Of course, that is not 100% coordinate attacks, but both sides were in action.
U-37 located convoy HG 53 late on 8 Feb 1941. She commenced attacking and sank 3 ships over the next 2 days, and also called in Condor aircraft from 2/KG 40, which sank an additional 5 ships...
In some causes u-boats finished ship damaged by planes, and in other planes finished ships damaged by u-boats...
I just think, it will be more realistic to correct this things.
