Re: Bodenplatte: Fw 190 A of II./JG 4

Hey Erich, 'ol pal;
Have you taken a look back at the site of the 385th that Nick found? They have posted a new photo of "White 11". This is Wagner's Fw 190 A-8/R2. You can see the Mk 108 30 mm outboard cannon blast tubes in these photos. Also, Crashed Enemy Aircraft Report No. 234 records the armament as being 2 MK 108 30 mm cannons in the outboard position and 2 MG 151 20 mm cannons in the inboard position. And, you can see in these photos that typically the MG 131 13mm machine guns have been removed.
Why are you saying it had outboard 20 mm cannons instead of the 30 mm MK 108s? Just curious,
Your pal,
Jerry
