JG 5 nose ring colors - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

Sylvester Stadler · #1 17th July 2007, 03:29

Looking at some photos and colored illustrations of the Fw 190A-8s of JG 5 on the "Luftwaffe over Norway" site, the armored oil cooler nose ring was white as well as the code on the machines of 9./JG 5 and blue on the aircraft of 12./JG5. I have not seen any illustrations of any 10. or 11./JG 5 Fw 190s to determine whether such nose rings were yellow and red or black for these Staffeln. Can anyone assists in this search since I want to build a few Fw 190A-8s of the latter two Staffeln.

The only units flying Fw 190 in JG 5 Late 1944/1945 was 9. and 12./JG 5. All others was flying Bf 109 G-6 or G-14
