Good afternoon. I am hoping to find information on this machine if any exists.

All I know is Eastern front, possibly Rzhev region.

Thank you
Brian

I have had this cowling for a while now. Only today did I notice that there was a werkno stamped on the underside.

Based on the interesting green, and the region I was told it was found, I suspected it may have been JG54.

Is it possible this is a sample of the mystery JG54 green?

I believe it has not suffered too much degredation.
