Re: Captured JG 54 Fw 190 A-4 Video
Inside Osprey series about JG54, John Weal state that H.Brandt, 2./JG54, forced-landed "black 2" W.Nr. 142310, on the frozen surface of Ladoga lake after tangling with four fighters from 158th Regiment...
On the other side i have just read the Soviet version page 177 from "swastika in the gunsight" by Igor Kaberov, who saw the Fw 190 newcomers for the first time only the day before, that H.Brandt was actually to shoot on Soviet vehicules on the Ladoga lake but when he press the trigger the shells from the incorrectly adjusted guns simply cut off the propeller blades! Must be said that he had ordered his mechanic to adjust the guns interruptor mechanism a little earlier. Anyone knows more? |
