Revell Focke-Wulf FW190G-8 is a re-issue of Dragon/TriMaster's model. The box-art depicts an aircraft with red nose-band and rudder, but I was not sure this was correct. An e-mail to noted historian Jerry Crandall proved me correct in my suspicions regarding the colours. Being an aircraft of II./SG10 (second Gruppe of SlachtGeschwader 10) operating out of Totvasony, Hungary, february 1945, this unit was part of Luftflotte 4. As distinguishing markings they had yellow nose-bands and rudders. The yellow 'V' below the port wing was a recognition aid to flak crews to make sure they didn't shoot down their own low-flying planes by mistake! These markings were removed the following month. Jerry Crandall also shed some light on the colours used; RLM 77 light grey over RLM 83 dark green, with RLM 76 light blue-grey lower surfaces and sides. The 77 in particular is interesting; at year's end supplies of paint were getting low, so quite often primer, or in this case RLM 77, was substituted for the more widely used 82 brown-green or 75 dark grey. Interesting is the small black arrow: could this possibly be the aircraft of a Staffel commander? Remember that SG (Slacht Gruppen) did not follow the same markings as did the JG (Jagd Gruppen).
