Re: A unique Bf 109 G-10/R4 picture!
Pilot,
You're most welcome.
Harrison987, sorry, there is only this low-res jpeg affair... Only sure way to have a better res is to buy the book.
Anders,
Agreed, what made me jump is the big oil radiator. As for the shadow abve the supecharger air intake, well, you might be right. In all cases an odd machine.
Here is the only high-res picture I know of an Bf 109 G-10/R5: "Yellow 9", unit unknown, abandonned early 1945 at Bad Lippspringe. Note the MG 151/20 canon tubes extending beyond the wings leading edges. Note that the bulge fairing as the camouflage scheme do point out for an Erla produced machine, in the W.Nr. 150 -152 XXX batches.
Cheers
Marc
