Re: Heinkel He 45D

Hello Steve,

This is a very different plate, especially with its design and fonts. Do you know if this is the same design used in the very early Fw190s? From your plates at Bookie's webpage, I know that the A-4 and A-5 had a hexagonal design, but it seems that the early A versions (A-1, A-2) had a smaller data plate. They were also located little bit further up and front (over the balkenkreuz). I attach a photo of a Fw190A-1 where I marked the data plate on the balkenkreuz with a circle.

Have a good day,

Batur
