P-47 ground attack

I found this picture on the web.  What is interesting is the this P-47 Squadron is using BF-109 drop tanks as napalm tanks.  According to some people of Hyperscale this was because they had run out of Napalm tanks in the supply chain.  So some crew chief figured out a away to Bf-109 tanks.  Hell the tanks where all over the country side..

War Eagle "Tulip Nosed" Bf-109 decal sheet


Talk about a Blast from the past.  This sheet was printed in 1992.  The data more than likely is out of date. But the decals are very nice.   From my own collection    More can be found here: Hartmann's last Bf-109  FalkeEins is a great website on the Luftwaffe during WW2
