Re: Bf109 Rüstatz etc...

Please change "G-2/Rüstsatz 1" and similar to "G-2 Rüstsatz 1" or "G-2 with Rüstsatz 1". The current nomenclature implies the Rüstsatz designation was part of the subversion/model number.
No 500kg bomb on Bf 109G, the carrier was capably of carying such a bomb but insufficient ground clearance on the 109 prevented it's use. At least for machines with standard length tail wheel assembly.

The description of Rüstzustand and Umrüstsatz seem reversed.

/U4 variant should be stated as MK 108 Motorkanone, just MK 108 may be misleading

/R3 long range recons had no MGs (but retained Motorkanone) - space needed for additional oil tank.

G-5/AS/R2 - Recon with DB 605AS engine
