Re: Bf109G for Italy 1945
This was only one of the batches received by 1° Gruppo Caccia between February 23 and 24. In all 45 Bf 109 Gs (1 G-6, 1 G-6/AS, 2 G-14, 11 G-14/AS and 30 G-10) and 3 K-4s were received by the unit.
In addition to that, further 8 Gustavs (2 G-14, 3 G-14/AS and 3 G-10) were received in the following weeks as replacements for losses or technical accidents.
Those data are available both in "Air War Italy 1944-45" and in "The Camouflage and Markings of the Aeronautica Nazionale Repubblicana 1943-1945", which I co-authored.
