Re: WGr.21

I can't put my hand on it at present, but I seem to remember seeing a photo or colour profile somewhere, showing an Fw190 with a single, rear-facing WGr.21... possibly an experimental field modification.

If I can find something more substantial, I'll let you know. I'm sure others may have seen or heard about this '190' arrangement.
