KG 51 Me 410
« on: June 25, 2026, 07:52:23 AM »
Thank you to  Lyric1 for finding me the info for this skin.

This Me 410 from 1./KG 51 was based in Northern Europe in early 1944 where it took part in night time bombing missions over England. It was damaged on a Dutch airfield in a ground collision with an He 177 but was repaired and later returned to service. However on the night of April 19-20 it was shot down by a Mosquito night fighter to the south of London killing both crew members. Apart from the black undersides the standard factory colour scheme was modified with extra mottling painted on to its sides to reduce the amount of light blue that could reflect back when the aircraft was lit up by searchlights.
