Re: Did Bf109G's use Gunpods during Kursk?

I never stated, that anyone got G-6's earlier. I wrote:"These mules were born, because the Nazis sold many times just the crap planes to Hungary (worn out F-4's, for example, when their units used G-6's in the same time and area...)" It happened exactly on July, 1943 in Kursk sector (the Germans flew G-6's there)

I wrote: early G models to the other Axis countries. The Slovaks, Romanians and Finns all flew G's in spring, 1943, only the Hungarians got F-4's (I did not mention the Bulgarians, who never fight against the Sovietunion)

So, it is not balanced at all (espacially not, if you know, that in Hungary, there was a significant Bf 109 production)

The Hungarians got the G-6 just in January, 1944.
