Hs 123 camouflage diagram

[Dénes Bernád]

I have a "soft spot" for the Hs 123, and I managed to collect a couple of hundred of original photos of this sturdy biplane.

I just checked them, and found none that clearly shows the "classic" two-tone RLM 70/71 camouflage scheme.

On a very few photos one may see a demarkation line on the upper paint job, but I believe those are the early four-colour camo overpainted in large areas by a new coat of dark paint, possibly green.

Therefore, I am also still waiting for the ultimate proof for the RLM 70/71 camouflage scheme being worn by any Hs 123.
