A question for bf109 'experten'

[JG53Frankyboy]

the inner holes were used when the wing had the E-1 armament, means MG17 instead of MG-FF.
the idea was to ease the production.....as E-1 and E-3 (at least) were produced during the same time.
Its like the universal SpitfireMk.V C wing.

if you look closer at canon armed Emil pictures from the front you see that these inner holed are just faired over.

the spinner says nothing about how old the aircraft was or what version it is btw
