Strange photo. Crashed Fw 190 with JG 3 emblem.
 

This parts of Fw 190 are in Moskow museum, Poklonnaya Gora.

But imho strange: "snake" of one of JG 3 staffeln on tail of Fw 190. But as well as i know, only IV(Sturm)./JG 3 Udet has Fw190, & this unit not fought with Red Army.

I'm not even certain that's a proper Fw 190 tail... I may be way off, but it looks more like bits of a Yak tail made up to look like a crashed 190.

DaveM2, what say you?

Hi Eugen,

The tail shown on the photo is not from a Fw 190 and the markings are definitely not original German markings. As Lynn suggests, it looks more like a Yak-1 tail.

Cheers,
Morten

Notice the red/white stripes on the rudder, and red and white paint on the hor. stab.

Didn't the Soviets use similar markings on their pre-war trainers?

The scheme is not original in any way, but can we discern the type?

I think we can safely exclude a Fw 190.

Guys

It is a Yak 18 rear fuselage. Looks the part though and makes an interesting quiz. There's an exhibit in a similar position at the Saratov open air museum ( not sure if this is the same one )
