Re: FuG 217J Neptun equipted ME109G-6/ASN
There is a book that I believe provides the most comprehensive data about radar equipment installed on bombers and fighter aircraft. It is titled: Radarkrieg und Nachtluftverteidigung über Berlin 1939 bis 1945, by Helmut Bukowski. Not to mention radar used in ground installations.

There is a photo of a Bf 109 on page 221 which appears to be a G type. Based on my translation, the FuG 217 J1 "Neptun J1" antennas on it are being calibrated at the airfield Werneuchen in Speptember 1943. It carries the code PP+NO.
