Re: Color profiles of Mäandertarnung the Night fighter
Merrick, "Luftwaffe Camouflage and Markings Vol2", p 312 has a detailed analysis of the Ju88s in the first photo. Colors given for the Ju88 night fighters: 76 overall with scribbles in 75. "Luftwaffe Colours Nachtjaeger, vol. 2" p.185f has more photos of 9W+BO, including one from the port side. Colors are 76 lower and sides, solid 75 on top of fuselage and wings, with squiggles in 81 or 83. The plane had a yellow fuselage band eastern front marking. The tactical yellow "V" on the port wing had been overpainted, probably in some green.
HTH, Richard
