Thank You Heuser.

We just have to hope the listed "G" were, effectively, "G" subtype leaving only one K-4 .. if not ...

Thank you too for Erfurt listing.

Cheers,
Franck.

Franck, there are some "if'"; there is no visible Werknummer on these fotos nor an exact location, but mentioned one are from CEAR No. 269, dated 30.03.1945.

Well - AFAIK, the Alliied have identified K-4's as such in only a very few cases, often these are mentioned as G-6, G-10 or G-14 in the CEAR and Technical Intelligence Reports known to me.
I assume that the K-4 did not have a identification plate as known from older versions. A positive identification is only possible if the Werkummer is listed in these reports. F.e., there are 17 Werknummern of K-4s in a Report of Wertheim a/f , al listed as G-14.
