This repaint is for the payware FlyingIron Simulations Messerschmitt Bf 109G-6/U2. It depicts W.Nr.410061, Fliegerhorst Wunstorf, Germany, 1945.
In the final weeks of the war, a new camouflage scheme may have been introduced which involved light coloured mottles applied over a darker base. The camouflage scheme seems to consist of a base of late war colors taken down the sides of the fuselage, on top of which a light color has been mottled.
What's interesting is that there seems to be a dapple of darker spots at the lower part of the fuselage that are darker than both main colors of the camouflage.
This very colorful Bf109G-6 was found and photographed by Canadian troops at Fliegerhorst Wunstorf in May 1945.
More than one aircraft has been found in this scheme so it's certainly not a one off. The question is whether it might have been an enhanced version of the austerity scheme seen on Erla built Bf109G-10's or something else completely. The WNr's of these aircraft shows that they were all old aircraft that had had a major overhaul at a repair facility which might be the origin of all the aicraft in this intriguing scheme. Similar spots were found on the noses of some Fw190D-9's and on the sides of a few Me262's though so there might have been a more elaborate plan with the use of this scheme.
