Some books describe RLM cancelled Fw190C/D prototype V22,23,26 and 27 on June 3,1943.
Do you have a photo of V27 under construction? |

I meant this one.

Re: Fw 190 V-27 - details of signs on it's wings
Thank you for the photographs.
Dietmar Hermann states in "Focke-Wulf Hohenjager Vom ersten Hohenjager zur FW190H" the plane was Fw190B-0, W,Nr.0046 TI+IK. Manfred Griehl & Joahim Dressel state in "FOCKE WULF FW190/Ta152" V46 was W,Nr.0046 TI+IK. The wing was enlarged to 12.3m, 20.3m2. So that the signs on right wing seem like measurement point to estimate wing distortion caused by extended outer wing. I can't read or find evidences of the inscription on the left wing, maybe a notification for construction or conversion, such as "Attach larger aileron" or "Cut off the wing spar here", I suppose. |
