Post When did the Luftwaffe introduce the D/F aerial Loop on the Bf109-G6
Hi everyone I am a newbie to this forum. I hope you can answer my puzzling question
When did the Luftwaffe introduce the D/F aerial Loop system on the Messerscmitt Bf109-G6. And what was it exactly?
The Bf109-G6 was first introduced in February 1943.. But several pictures of the G6 don't have the short aerial and D/F Loop but the long conventional aerial? Was it also used on the Russian front too?
Can anyone explain what it is and the advantages over the conventional radio system etc?
