Re: Acfts ID Budapest

Yep, these are all remains of single seated German DFS 230 gliders, towed by He 111s, Ju 87s to Budapest. That bomb shape container was used for parachute drops from He 111s, Ju 52s. They were usually filled with ammunition (and hay to protect it). Parachute color was usually red. This park in Buda was a combined drop and landing zone in the final days of the siege.
