Fw 190F-8 flown by Hans Gottfried Schulz of I/Sg 10 in February 1945. Schulz was shot down in this aircraft over Dombóvár, Hungary while attacking the railway station. It was his 486th mission. Schulz attempted to evade capture by hiding in the granary on a Hungarian farm, but Soviet soldiers were able to track and capture him. He was transported to Romania, where he escaped after seven weeks in captivity. Traveling through Soviet occupied territory, he finally arrived back in German in October.
This aircraft featured large areas of white paint over the standard camouflage. A yellow band wraps around the nose and a yellow "V" was painted on the underside of the left wing. These were IFF markings for Axis aircraft operating in Hungary.
