Fw 190F-9 canopy question

[Norbert Neuser]

@ Zamex:

The second picture of the rocket type possibly shows the converted type of the "Panzerblitz" as ammunition to be used by German a/c. It was adapted by the ammunition-type, the German Bazooka called "Panzerschreck" used.

Nonetheless the first rocket - for My eyes - only shows the R4M type. Reference pic above (the underwing installation front-photograph) simply is kind of propaganda - a mostly and well spreaded photograph without giving the ability of a real outlook at least. I've seen some photgraphs of still existing examples of the R4M rockets before. And the warhead indeed, shown in Your posting as well, is the common one, and really was used by the Luftwaffe as air-to-air-missile.

Hopefully this may be of some help.

Kind regards
