Fw190A6 Sturmjager of Sturmstaffel1 Gruppe Build

Like Wayne while I'm not competing I would like to make the model for the gruppe build.Initially I wanted to start the thread later when all can be finished but FalkeEins' opinion forced me to do it earlier.

I have decided use the same kit like Alex and Karl ( as memory serves).It is an Academy one.The firm offers the same kit as no.2213 and no.2120.The no.2213 is offered with Kubelwagen as Fw190A8 but the rest of the kit is the same like in the no.2120.Of course the difference are decal markings.The no.2120 is for A-6/A-8 version of Wurger.To be honest it is not true because the decal sheet is with markings for A-8 only.Here some pics.

to be continued.....

so W ~ will it be an A-6 or an A-8 ? Sturmstaffel 1 had very few A-8's on hand during their December 1943 through March 44 ramble in the skies

what references are you using ? ... side note very few of the SturmFw' even had outboard Mk 108's as well ..........

I guess "Sturmstaffel 1 The War Diary" by Eric Mombeek, Robert Forsyth and Eddie Creek is a no brainer.

How about A-6 White 10 my friend?

the resource mentioned has errors but it will do. Another friend and author I await his script to be published on the unit, and there will be surprises within. Gee I wonder why you mentioned Weiße 10 ???? just so you know it was flown by several pilots and inf act all the Sturm machines were in the oversized unit

Nice catch Erich! I believe Gerhard Vivroux flew it too?

.. first flight of the A-8 variant in Siegfried Müller's log wasn't until April 44.

Erik Mombeeck is just about to republish his Sturmstaffel book as part of his JG 4 history & he has some new pictures

THX guys. I'm going to make "White 1" of Mjr.Hans-Gunther von Kornatzki from January 1944 at Dortmund.Unless I can go for his later A-7.But the A-6 looks much more interesting.

to continue....

The basic set for each kit consists of three frames with fuselag,wings, wheels etc... and one frame with "glass".There are 64 parts totally. In no.2213 there are two additional frames with kubelwagen parts ( one is with transparent pieces.)

I'm with the guys Wojtek, really looking forward to this! I'm only guessing, but I think perhaps the kit will be vastly improved by some Wurgermajic!!
