Richard502 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 My admittedly limited sources have no photo showing the use of a drop tank from the Hs 123's time in Russia. Correct, or am I missing s/t? Was the drop tank shackle left in place or removed altogether when no tank was used? Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWM Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Hwre are very interesting photos, aspecially lok at the lowest one with clearly seen area of drop tank http://falkeeins.blogspot.com/2015/08/hs-123-l2am-of-4slg-2-poland-september.html Please note black crosses on upper wing!!!

JWM Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) P.S. to above: Here another with crosses on yellow tips and with dark (uppeer camo) colour on internal part of main wing strut And here is winter photo depicted "in Russia" with tank, however I do not see yellow wingtips so it could be winter in Germany...

Richard502 Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Thank you for the information. So my Gaspatch Hs123 will end up w/o a drop tank. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan B. Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Found this on FalkeEins. Seems to be a yellow band around the rear fuselage: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
