Country: | Actually, what is the azure-blue nose canopy like? Is that glass with panzer? | |

Country: | No,it was not. The Ju88 of the "C"serie were equipped with a solid matal nose cap.There were mounted 7.92mm MGs and/or 20mm MG-FF/MG151 cannon.During winter 1942/43 4 Staffel/KG76 painted false "bomber noses" on their Ju88C-6s to trick Russian pilots into making head-on attacks.
Here are Ju88D-1 profile and two shots of a/c from 5.(F)/122.The difference of its nose and the earlier posted one is clearly visible.

Country: | Oh, yes, it is quite obvious. Do you think I can make a conversion from an A into a C? | |

Country:  | Want to see some Train buster C's Pisis ? actually in summer camo though with usually at least two 2cm but sometimes four 2cm weapons fitted besdies the longer range mg's, foru of them. Several of the anti-train staffeln were quite successful flying over miles and miles of the Soviet countryside popping locos/trains, Udo Cordes being the most successful, and the man is still living as well ........ | |

BTW I've found the info that the nose cap was made of an armoured plate of 11mm thickness.

Country: | Oooh, that will be a challenge. As I said, I'm not very much knower of Luftwafe (yes, I know each plane but can't always tell the differences...). I'll have to look into my WW2 "clever books"...
So what would you suggest me to converse the A-4 to? What would be easiest in your opinion? I really don't know how could I rebuild the canopy, and because it could be fun to paint the nose canopy cap as a panzer, I'd like to do C-6... But I'm not sure, please tell me.  | |
