Gentlemen,


I would be remiss if I did not point out that replica Revi gunsights are available.

Fran,

Early Bf-109's C,D,E's had Revi 3c or d gunsights and then the newer C/12 when it came along.

Check out pic 33 and 38 of this B model.

Re: Luftwaffe Revi gunsights

Thanks Mike,
In the foto 38 in the gunsight it is hardly readable 12D.
The logo seems to be the Zeiss one

Greetings

Re: Luftwaffe Revi gunsights

Hi,

That's a C12/A not a C/12D, one of the very early C12 sights. The C12/C followed and was used in some Me 109, Henschel ground attack plane, etc. before the C12/D was introduced. In most cases the letter after C12 indicated just minor changes like improved lens system, different voltage (mainly for the Revi 3a,b,c,d series).

Regards,
Roger

That's for the early Bf 109B (damn I can't get rid of the underline). The gunsight specified for that a/c was the Revi C/12 B. On later numbers of the B, and then on the C and D, the Revi C/12 C was specified.

Hope this helps,
George
