Re: Bf 109G-12
Taken from "Messerschmitt Bf-109 F, G & K Series" by Prien & Rodeike,
In order to satisfy a requirement for a two-seat trainer version of the Bf-109 G, from early 1944 a small number of early series Bf-109 G fighters - a total of 500 machines was planned-were converted into the G-12 variant. Almost every early version of the Bf-109 G was involved in the conversion program, specifically,
G-2's from production batchs, 10400-10900, 13400-13500, 14200-14900
G-3's from production batches, 16250-16300
G-4's from production batches, 14950-15000, 15000-15200, 16000-16250, 19200-19800
G-6's from production batches, 18200-18400, 19600-20000, 411000-412000, 412000-413000
The converted machines retained thier original Werknummern.

Mike
