Messerschmitt Bf109G-6/R6 trop by Design Team Daedalus Unit: 7./JG27 Maleme, Crete December, 1943 Pilot: unknown There is no "standard" Bf 109G-6, as the production run spanned 2 years it underwent many modifications and updates along the way. Tropical versions were delivered throughout the entire production run as the G-6 trop but displayed fewer variations. For example, I have not seen any G-6 trop aircraft fitted with an Erla Haube canopy while many G-6 versions were so fitted. The most obvious feature of the G-6 trop was the sand filter fitted to the front of the supercharger air intake. All G-6 trop aircraft had two small teardrop shaped clips on the port side below the canopy sill, which were mounts for a sun umbrella. The umbrella was intended to provide shade for the cockpit while the aircraft was at readiness. Different weapons packages could be seen like the 20mm under wing gondolas such as this aircraft was equipped with. Most Most G-6 trops were delivered to the Mediterranean operations areas and some to the southern Russian/Balkans front area. Pstrany developed the models using Paul Rebuffat's Messerschmitt model - with permission - as a starting framework and updated the shape, and added a plethora of details, new parts, and ideas. Pstrany also developed the models for the drop tanks, weapons and racks. Captain Kurt created paints for each, the 2D instrument panel, the individual .dp files, the air files and the aircraft.cfg files. Mav SCASM edited each model so that they have animated wing slats, drop tanks, and other features, as well as optimizing models for the best possible framerates. Mav also developed the idea for the 2d panel to be offset for the Revi gunsight to match the CFS2 reticle.

Messerschmitt Bf109G-14 by Design Team Daedalus Unit: III./JG76 W.Nr. 560593. Athis, France August, 1944. Pilot: Hptm. Egon Albrecht-Lemke (He was a Brazilian of German ancestry who returned to Germany and joined the Luftwaffe scoring 25 aerial victories). He had a II./ZG1 wasp nose emblem as his unit was originally a Bf110 ground attack Gruppe on the East Front. II./ZG1 was then transferred to Defense of the Reich duties in early 1944. After heavy losses in July 1944, II./ZG1 converted to the Bf109G-14 and was redesignated III./JG76. Gruppenkommandeur Albrecht-Lemke then led the unit in missions over the Normandy invasion front. He was shot down by P-51s and KIA over Creil August 25, 1944. The first Bf109G-14 fighters reached front line units in the summer of 1944. It was flown by virtually all of the Bf109 equipped units. The G-14 version was an attempt to standardize a new type that would incorporate all of the plethora of changes introduced during the production of the G-6. The many changes and the ensuing problems associated with decentralized mass production had led to a great number of G-6 variations. The effort was a complete failure because the G-14 wound up with as many variations as the G-6. Some had the small tail of the earlier G-6 while some had a tall rudder which came in several different versions. Some were wood, some were fabric covered, some had a rounded lower rear edge, some had a sharp angled rear edge and there were several variations of trim tabs. There were different antenna types and some had no antenna at all. However there were some standards. It was powered by the DB605 AM engine with MW-50 injection and had the Erla Haube canopy. Most all had the FuG 16ZY radio with the antenna mast installed under the port wing outboard of the wheel well. Pstrany developed the models using Paul Rebuffat's Messerschmitt model - with permission - as a starting framework and updated the shape, and added a plethora of details, new parts, and ideas.
