Re: Adolf Gallands FS with wing guns 1941
In 1942 the wing of the Bf 109 was strengthened two times: in early 1942 (already planed in 1941 for late batches of F-4s) and late 1942 (starting with G-4 series, also in late batches of G-2s). This second time the fuselage was reinforced too (altogether, weight increased ~42 kg).
The wings were differentiated by plates on wing rib 1 noting the type of strengthening: "V" or "VE".
