Re: Bf109 G or K?

For me looks more like an G - 14 ... I miss the oil piping to vapour seperator typical for DB 605D (or isn't to see?) and there is the light quarter near the windshield (from the MG - bulge).

Best wishes
Rasmussen

Re: Bf109 G or K?

It is certainly a G-14 model.
It has the Db 605A-1 oil cooler.(carry by the G-14)
It has the external bulge of the MG 131 gun's in the engine.
It has the Fug 16ZY antena on the left wing that diferent it from the G-6 models.
and it does not have the Db603 super charger that diferent it from the
AS models.
The G-10 and K-4 models has Db605D engine with a bigger oil cooler.It is not the case of this photo.


Eduardo.

AFAIK, there were G-6s with FuG 16ZY antenna fitted.

I am quite sure that all G-6 carry the antena at the botton of the central
fuselage.This photo also shows the wooden ruder(sharpe angle at the botton), a feature introduce later in the war.The AS models carry a diferente type of ruder(with a round corner at the botton)
