EZ 42 in FW 190

[Revi16]

Please give a list of the aircraft deliverd with the EZ42. Your example above of the ME 262 info. doesn't list which aircraft had the EZ42 installed.

I have never seen any information on the EZ42 being installed in Bf-109's. I don't believe it would have fit in the cockpit in any practical way.

I have read the TA-152 was supposed to have it, but have never seen any proof so far.

From what mixed info. I have about the EZ42,

Delivered,
27 or 28 x FW 190D-9's with EZ42
4 x FW190D-11's with EZ42

As I collect gunsights, I constantly look for the EZ42 among others in all pics I come across. In the last 10 years I have found pics of it installed in only four aircraft. If there's more please be so kind as to post them.

I've seen pics of the EZ42 in

FW 190A-8, operational
FW 190D-9, operational
ME 262, testing
Do 335B-2, testing

Regards,
Mike
