Micdrow · 09-24-2009, 06:56 PM

Frickin nice pics fellas, makin me want to build one now, but like Jan, I would want to do one with the 3.7cm installed, even if it didnt see much usage....

Gotta love that cannon and that last pic Paul posted....

Erich · 09-24-2009, 07:09 PM

yes good job P on the pics !

1st and 3rd images are the same ZG 76 crate M 8 + EM

2nd image shows the standard four 2cm fit. the upper nose had the twin ports with aerodynamic covers in place.

a Nf testing the underbelly twin waffen pod which really pulled off the speed almost to the point with the big heavy antlers and radar inerts that it was hard to catch BC 4 engine bombers.

D ~ not sure if the 1/48th scale crate comes with the Flak 3.7cm or not ?? Jan would have to fill us in.

Micdrow · 09-24-2009, 07:22 PM

Thanks guys, I think I have some more floating around in different books. Will see what else I can come up with.

Micdrow · 09-24-2009, 07:37 PM

Here are a couple more

Erich · 09-24-2009, 07:44 PM

paul I postd the first one earl;ier, but thanks for the enlarged pic of the ZG 26 crate.

2nd pic is of the experimental use with ZG 76, note the halfed spinner which was early in the Reich defense. by gruppe and then by staffel ZG 76 110's went for the 2-3 colour spinner ad also continued this for some time on their Me 410's later

whoops yeah your right Erich,

getting tired as 3:00 am was along time ago though I got to say the picture does look good enough to frame.

ZG26 Bf-110 G-2s at Bad Lippspringe in late 1943. Underwing fuel tanks are fitted to the aircraft, and 'White 5' has the MG 151/20 belly cannon pack fitted.

Two views of a Bf-110G-2 'Yellow 1' of an unidentified unit having its compass calibrated. Supplementary fuel tanks are fitted under the wings and the twin MG 151/20 ventral pack is fitted. A wide white band is carried on the rear fuselage, and the fuselage cross does not have any thin black outline to it

Erich · 09-24-2009, 09:48 PM

flak 18 3,7cm mount already posted is not from ZG 26

wide white band may not be ZG 26 at all with the numbers as the 3U code is not present on the bands. this could very well be a very special stafeln or even from ZG 101 which also flew anti-bomber ops, though most were the trainer training the trainee

beua the top pics are from what book ? have seen a couple of them in the past. did another serch through the base I. and III. gruppen in December 43 through February used coloured numbers. oh heavens I could be wrong imagine that. am looking for positive ID though that ZG 26 used a wide white band though, in fact we know they used a narrow one

more hunting, the thread is great

thank you

Really good info guys!

I dug through my stuff, but the only thing I've come up with so far, is a detail image of the BK37 itself...

Airframes · 09-25-2009, 02:22 AM

Great pics and info guys. I'll see if I can add anything when I find the time!

Erich · 09-25-2009, 02:02 PM
