Dear All,
As part of my current thread regarding the wheel wells on the F2 and F4 variants I've discovered a bit of a puzzle which hopefully some Bf 109 experts out there can help clarify for me please.
I received a highly informative and detailed reply to my thread on the wheel well shapes which confirmed that there was never an F-2/Trop version, and so presumably never an F-2z/Trop either, which I found surprising as all the written and on-line references I have refer to such a beast, albeit the Trop modification being carried out in the field. So can anyone confirm whether the F-2/Trop was an official designation/specification for this aircraft or is it just a designation that has arisen over time by historians and/or modellers to cover off those F-2's which were retro-fitted with the dust filter?
Apologies if this subject has been covered previously.
Regards
Colin.
