Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source
Nice finds! I don't think the Wrk.Nr for Blue 3 is correct though. 413607 would have had a tall tail and the extra bulge below the regular bulge for the Mg131's. The camo looks more like WNF or possibly Mtt.Regensburg.
Cheers! / Anders |

Thus, such little bulge (along with its small airscoop) had sense only for the G-5. Unfortunately such version was built in much lower numbers than foreseen, while the modified cowls were apparently built at a much more "enthusiastic" rate. The net result was that they were available in much greater numbers than the G-5s, so - not to waste material - it was decided to use them in late G-6/early G-14 batches (which chronologically were being produced when such occurrence happened...). After all, the same happened a little later with the "double-chinned" (horrible English term, I know) lower engine cowls which, being available in great numbers at MTT Regensburg, were applied on their G-14/ASs though there was no necessity at all of any "chin bulge" on that sub-type. |
Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source
Thanks Ferdinando, I started writing something similar but it sounded wrong so I deleted it. I know that it's a leftover from G-5 production but I couldn't put together a good explanation as I was in a hurry. :)

Little more info I dug up:
Me 109G-10 W.Nr.'s 610 300 - 610 600, delivered mid jan./45 to II./JG 51(jan 6/45) and II./JG 52(jan 12/45). JG 51 was disbanded on 12.4.45 (Fels am Wagram airbase). |
Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source
Thanks Ferdinando for tidying our G-14 knowledge; decidedly a tough variant to recognize, even more so with intermeshed W.Nr. In the 165xxx-166xxx and 413xxx blocks.
Yo napot kivanok Dénes, You have to get a Flickr account, then it should work. Oberst, I hope you will finally unearth "Rosemarie"'W.Nr! Thanks for ur efforts. And greetings to all from Lebanon! Marc |
