Hi,

In this case, R6 was the PKS 12 and those G-10/R6 were all weather fighters.

The G-14 had the "tall and short" tail. The G-10 didn´t.The G-10 cames
later then the G-14.

On the G-14, yes, on the G-10, no.

The G-14 was like the continuation of the G-6 (a late G-6 and an early G-14 being almost indistinguishable, apart from the Werke Nummer), whereas the G-10 was a somewhat later and more advanced version, much more close to the K-4 than to the G-14... (even if this is a very rough definition, there being so many nuances with the late Bf 109s...)

thanks guys. i did forget about the G-10 being later than the G-14.
