A new Ta 152 H picture
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi there Gang,

Beyond the blown-up wreck of Fw 190 D-9 W.Nr. 400278 "Weisse ?" of 12./JG 26, you will see the unique silhouette of a Ta 152 H wing...a new to me picture. The shot does show Fl.Lt. Jan-Adam Smigielski, 306 Sqn, who is the source for this unique picture. Any ideas about the location, any details known ?

Hello guys,
I found interesting /at least for me is new/ picture of Fw190D-9 WNr.400278. This should be a 3rd know picture of first production batch of 120 aircraft build by Arbeitsgemeinschaft Roland. source: Japo Fw190D camouflage and markings vol.II page 218.

I would like ask, if in the background is wreck of Fw190D or Ta152H? The wing looks like is from Ta152 but engine looks like it´s from Fw190D-9 - according to L shaped coolant tank on the engine block. What do you think guys?

Here is a larger grab of the photo, but it unfortunately loses much of the sharpness and detail as a result:

The wing belonging to the wreck in the background certainly has something of the Ta152H about it...

You will have seen it probably: ex JG26. I remember Urbankes JG26 book and pictures of destroyed aircraft. Have to look further to see if I can get some more info.

Very Best regards
Philippe

Above mentioned should also exclude Ta152 , but who am I to put such a statement? I'll try to verify once at home.

Best regards
Philippe

I've checked Urbanke's excellent "Green Hearts, First in Combat with the Dora 9" [EagleEditions, 1997] but could find no mention of WNr.400278. The only WNr.400xxx series examples listed in the extensive loss are:
  • WNr.400259 of 12./JG54
  • WNr.400616 of 9./JG54
  • WNr.400617 of ?/JG54
  • WNr.400255 of 15./JG26
  • WNr.400619 recorded at Lister airfield 09.08.45
I could also not find anything for WNr.400278 in either of the two superb "The Focke-Wulf Fw190 Dora" volumes by J.Crandall [EagleEditions, 2007 & 2009]. The extensive Numerical Dora Werknummer Listing with Losses in volume two includes 34 examples from WNr.400202 to WNr.400320, but nothing for WNr.400278. Jerry is a member here so I hope he sees this thread and is able to add his expert comments...

I just checked in the WNr. list contained in Larger, Deboeck and Poruba ( 2007): Fw190D, Camouflage and markings, Volume II, JaPo editions, p. 454: no mention either...

Thanks Tomas, you gave us one more Fw190D-9 http://www.luftwaffe-experten.org/fo...fault/cool.png)

Thank you guys, I appreciate your interest. Because I am fool, I forgot mention in 1st post, that I already checked both J.Crandall and Japo volumes on Fw190D without success. I don't own this book "Green Hearts, First in Combat with Dora 9" - so thank you for checking this source, Peter.

Re: A new Ta 152 H picture
 
Just wondering if we should carefully edit posts of posts to remove all of the unnecessary blocking and formatting, i.e., #6 above, thereby preserving the look and integrity of our threads and archives.
