@ATA_Ringlett  Very nice work M8 !

 I want suggest two small corrections for your 109s of the ANR

 

 white 12 of Ten Ermete Ferrero bore the cat and three mice only on the right side of the nose in memory of his previous service with 51° Stormo , indeed on the left side there was likely only a repeated small 12 white ,because the coat with the iron leg of 3^ squadriglia at this time was already disused.

 

The black chevron on Carlo Miani plane , on the right side,was painted slightly deformed,  as per this image :

 

I hope you find this information useful.

 

My friend @geraki9 and I did some time ago a considerable historical research work on the 109 used by the Republican National Air Force (ANR) if you like, take a look,

 

Keep up the good work !

Hi,

thanks for the warning, I'll fix those planes according to the photo and your information.

I draw mainly for myself. I used to make plastic models, but now I don't have space, so I started drawing.
But I'm sorry to leave everything in my files.

MTB Hunters

 

164. "Argentina-British" Squadron RAF
 

It is a unit composed of British and Argentine nationals, which during 1943 specialized in battle attacks, mostly attacks on enemy shipping and often strikes on the Kriegsmarine Schneelboot operating in the English Channel and the Bay of Biscay. The squadron used Hawker Hurricane Mk.IId and Mk.IV aircraft armed with 40 mm Vickers type S cannons during this period.

In the game we have Hurricane Mk.IId represented. If you use an engine with higher supercharging we get roughly Mk.IV. This version differed mainly in that under its wing could be hung either 40 mm cannons, two bombs up to 250 kg each or eight unguided missiles. Visually, it can only be identified by the serial number.


 

In the camouflage offer, I focused on the KX540 FJoB with absolutely prescription camouflage, FJoP unknown with s/n with swapped fields of camouflage colors and KX143 FJoH sometimes presented as M, where in his photo it occurred to me that his bow is colored a different camouflage color than would it should be.

That's possible, but Axis planes aren't my cup of tea. That must be something very interesting.
And I find the Italian 109 interesting. There will be more. Someone paints them here, but I like them.

Spitfire Mk.IX specially adapted for high-altitude flights, from the state of Special Service / High Altlitude / Flight at Northolt Airport.

Six specially modified aircraft of this unit were available to pilots selected according to resistance to altitude sickness. Among them was an immigrant from Russia, Prince Emanuel Galitzin, a British citizen who took part in the Finnish Air Force's winter war.

On September 12, 192, he took off in pairs with another pilot to try to capture the German high-altitude bomber Ju 86R-2. Around ten o'clock in the morning, Galitzin found Junkers above Portsmouth at an altitude of 12,800 meters, and during the ensuing chase, the two planes ascended to 13,100 meters in height, waging the highest battle of World War II. During the fight, Galicin damaged the wing of the enemy machine and had to end the pursuit due to a defect in armament. Horst Gotz's Junkers crew was able to return to their base in France. Subsequently, the high-altitude flights of these machines over Britain were terminated.
