Re: Do 217N-2 3C + IP

The book "Deutsche Luftwaffe ueber der Schweiz 1939-1945" by Karl Ries, notes that the a/c camouflage was in the standard night fighter colours, "grays 74 and 75 on its upper, and whitish gray 76 on its lower surfaces." The a/c had either the FuG 212 (German narrative) or FuG 202 (English narrative) radar -- no big deal since their antennas were identical, and the FuG 227 passive homing on the wingtips. The picture below is from that superb book, page 67.
