What's the purpose of the device on the tail of White 15 in the place usually occupied by the swastika?

There’s a little issue with the Bf-109G-14/AS nose in the Bodenplatte kit. The bumps under the nose need to be removed and plastic rescribed. (Release the Krakkens!) It’s an easy fix. Hasegawa did the same thing when they released their Bf-109G-6/14/AS kit. Eduard just needs to add that step to the instructions. Like Hasegawa they probably needed to save on tooling expenses so they used the G-10 fuselage sprue. :fish:

Some do have the bulges (though redundant) so Eduard covers all their bases with this approach..

Yes. I didn't know this.

 

 

Eduard's G-6/AS has no bumps

But the G-14/AS Regensburg Erla Leipzig variants do

is there a version of the Bf-109G-14/AS without nose bumps?

 

My 109 reference material doesn't cover these versions very well. However it's nice to learn something new about 109's!:book:

I don't have refs to hand, but I am sure there were G-14ASs without the bumps.

 

If I come across any, I'll PM you..

New kit releases are four for November, with 1/48th scale Bf 109G6/AS in ProfiPack line. This the item originally announced for August, abandoned that time to give space to Chattanooga Choo Choo Mustang. The AS series Messerschmitts were highly requested by modelers in the past, this one and Bf 109G-14/AS following later are our reaction on the modelers calls. The marking options are interesting, quite colorful and variable, so we may expect G-6/AS could be a good seller.

On the other hand, only one type of wing with small bosses

IIRC that was what Erla built planes used.   Erla with large bulges are hmmm, a check reveals Erla built with large bulges....

well, that will be the next edition then :rolleyes:, as they can then do the Erla with the dark uppers scheme..

shame they won't sort out the overdeep exhaust,  but if the do a decent job on the cowling,  one to get.
