Country:  | Mosquito hitting by a 30 mmm round
Hi there,
i am searching for a picture of a specific Mosquito which returned to its airbase with some serious damgage by a 30 mm round of a ME262. I think it was a 262, but can' t remember it clearly. I only need a example of the damage done by a 30 mmm hit. A B-17 or something else would also be OK. Thanks in advance. |

Country:  | Amazing, but Mosquito was made of wood mostly and damages to the structure look a little different.
Here is an effect of air bottle explosion inside of the Mosquito fuselage.
Source unknown.
