The ultimate Bf109g-10!

This one is perhaps the final word in G-10s! It has the streamlined Erla type 110 cowling without the lower cowl bulges of the Messerschmitt and WNF versions, and the smooth left-hand gun fairing, not to mention a 30mm MK108 cannon, DB605 DCM engine with 100 octane fuel, MW-50 boost system and wide wheels.

It has often been misidentified as belonging to JG 7, and predictably the French Histoire et Collections "Me109 Volume II" falls into the trap yet again - apart from showing it erroneously as a WNF machine with the standard type 100 cowling. Other than a half-dozen temporarily-attached Bf109g-6 and g-14 aircraft for training purposes only, the Me262-equipped JG 7 did not operate Bf109s...

In fact, as far as anyone can possibly tell, it was operated by 15./JG 301, as it is represented here. It was shot down on 2nd March 1945 over Regenhardt, with the loss of its pilot, Uffiz. Rudolph Welsch.

Coming very soon...
 
WOW This is Great!!
I am getting enough Beautiful 109's that it will take me weeks to wreck them all..
BRAVO.. Thank you..

He is a bit low-slung, isn't he? Reminds you of chavs in VW Golfs...

Very nice plane. Any chance the 109K will have a retractable tailwheel?

None whatsoever! Unfortunately we don't have access to the source files, which also explains the other inaccuracies such as radio masts on aircraft which shouldn't have them, etc, etc. Can't be helped - we're doing our best with what we've got.
 
It's not a big deal though, many K-4s had fixed tailwheels and no outer landing gear doors - the main reason being to reduce the amount of breaking parts. And the external differences between a G-10 and a K-4 were, surprise surprise, a retracting tailwheel and outer landing gear doors... the flight model will portray a "proper" K-4 though with its cleaner aerodynamics.
 
And the radio compartment being moved from frame 5 to 4. That's about all I'll have to do, to be honest. Details, and even then.
