Bf 109 in unusual markings

Post by pampa14 »

I share with you an article that features a compilation of photos showing one of the main fighters of WW2 with markings that any Luftwaffe’s Commander or pilot, when the war began, imagine one day see in their planes.

I assume these photos were taken following the end of the war and these planes were used by the allied air forces for evaluations. They were re-painted with the allied national markings.

My late father-in-law supervised testing of Me-109's and FW-190's that had been modified by the Germans to test experimental airfoil and flap configurations.
