FW190D-11 / D-13 question

[LcSummers]

Hello community,


why was the bottom paint of theses aircraft multicolored? Who of you can help me please?

Searched the internet but didnt found any answers.

Was it not easier for the manufacturer to overpaint the bottom surface with RLM76 or was it later done by the unit itself?

I know that the FW190D-13 YELLOW 10 (Major Franz Götz) top was overpainted in the "fields" to maximize consealment. But the lower surface?

Wich answer might be right?

1, The wings were spare parts from different airplanes?

2, There was a color shortage

3, Recognition for friendly FLAK not to shoot them (like Doras of JV44)



Thank you all for all answering these questions.


S!
