Messerschmitt Regensburg Bf 109G-14's colours

[Micke D]

I cant't really help you with your question, but Dunkelgrun is generaly accepted today as being RLM83 and RLM82 being Hellgrun.

The description broadly (this term is default when speaking of LW Cam. & Markings) applies to the camo put on Regensburg examples since early Bf 109 G-6 series (except for the RLM 82 colour, of course).

Attached please find a couple of images of a couple of mid/late MTT G-6s (RQ+SY W.Nr.163599 and NF+FD W.Nr. 163803) whose camouflage style can reasonably be thought as applied also on early G-14 models.





Please notice that on most of the "tall tail" examples, since the tail unit (top fixed section and rudder) was built and pre-painted by separate sub-contractors, the scheme was of the (as we know it) "K-4" type and it was toned down by liberal overspray patterns in 76. This can be noticed on a great number of photographs since the late G-6 versions as early as the 162000 batches. We devoted a separate chapter on that in our book on the ANR C&M.
