Marc

like I said earlier NJG 11 109G-10's and even the K-4 in limited numbers did not have a Rumpfband installed, later war they had 2cm waffenpods installed for day/night ground attack duties: G-14/AS and G-10's.

Note on black 13 the underwing colour - RLM 76 it appears, late war ground attack had many machines with undersides painted black while uppers were in RLM 76 and shades of grey squiggles and or spots.

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Thanks for your precisions, Erich, they are appreciated. The R6 MG 151/20 on G-14's and G-10's are almost undocumented photographically. I know only one picture of a G-10 taken in an aircraft dump sometimes in 1946 showing them... Published in Prien and Rodeike 1995.

Do you know any pictures of G-14/R6's? I would love to see some.

Cheers
Marc

Cheers

Hi Marc,

That one isn't coming from Prien, and obviously not scanned in a book.
And I just realised U're right telling there is not that much of G-14/R6!

Cheers, Franck.

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Hallo Franck,

I'm pretty sure though I've seen this pic published already... I'll have to take full use of a rainy Sunday to find it back;-)).

According to Falcon citing Harald Vogt's latest opus, there are none known so far depicting a Bf 109 G-14/R6... Something to hope for on Ebay?

Thanks again and cheers
Marc

Looking through TOCH pages I just read JCM said that R6 was for PKS 12, all weather fighters.

To be precise, it is published on page 163 of Prien & Rodeike fundamental "Messerschmitt Bf 109 F, G & K Series" published on 1993, photo credited to Peter Petrick and tentatively located at Bad Lippspringe.

Hope it helps...
