"D.(Luft) T.2110 G-2 Teil 8A, Bf 110 G-2 Flugzeughandbuch, Teil 8A Schußwaffenanlage" from 03/1943 printed 04/1943 "D.(Luft) T.2110 G-2 Teil 8C, Heft 1, Bf 110 G-2 Flugzeughandbuch, Teil 8C Sonderwaffenanlage" from 12/1943 "D.(Luft) T.2110 G-2 Teil 8A, Beiheft 1, Bf 110 G-2 Flugzeughandbuch, Teil 8A Schußwaffenanlage" from 01/1944 "D.(Luft) T.2110 G-2/R3 und G-4/R3/Wa , Bf 110 G-2/R3 und G-4/R3, Schußwaffenanlage mit MK 108 in der Rumpfspitze" from 12/1943 printed 03/1944 Cockpit of the G-series: First I will show you the standard cockpit of the G-series, then I will go into the subtypes. Attachment 11500 This cockpit is mostly the same as the cockpit for the late Bf 110 F with MG 151/20 instead of the MG-FF/M. The only differences I could find is a changed right hand panel ( the oxygen-bottle is now below the panel? ) and the use of the "Schwenkplatte Sp 2 A" (the same as in the Stuka) instead of the "Sp 1 A". Attachment 11501 The left and right front windows are also armored. The only difference between this cockpit and the G-2/R1 with the 3,7 cm BK is the closed left ammunition-counter of the SZKK-2 (below the Revi). The G-series cockpit with "Rüstsatz M5: 21cm BR" Attachment 11502 No big changes here either. The plates for the power switch and the arm-switches(always on and armed) are gone for arming and disarming of the 21 cm BR. The Button(7) for ermegency drop of the BR-tubes is changes to a switch (might be the same as in the F-series? See previous post: right side) For the Bf-110 G with MK 108 I have found 2 cockpit variants and 5 subtype-callings. Let's begin with the subtype-names: First type is the original one with 4x MG 17 and then the subtype with MK 108 in the nose. Bf 110 G-2 >> Bf 110 G-2/U9 Bf 110 G-3 >> Bf 110 G-3/U9 Bf 110 G-4 >> Bf 110 G-4/U9 Bf 110 G-2/R1 >> Bf 110 G-2/R3 Bf 110 G-2/R2 >> Bf 110 G-2/R4 135 Cartridges for the right and 120 for the left MK 108. Now it get's a little bit tricky. Since we have 2 pictures for the same armament dated nearly the same time (January/March 1944) but with differnent layouts of the cockpit, I have 3 possible solutions. First: The 1. picture I show now is a field mod allowed through the RLM with manuals, to change old type to the new subtype. Second: Luther and GWF produced each a different version of the MK 108 subtype. Third: Both of them are true. By the first type with the MK 108 the "SSK 404/2" was replaced by a plate with 2 buttons and control lamps. So nearly the same as the standard G-series. Attachment 11503 The second type has also the "SSK 404/2" deleted, but a "SZKK-3" instead of the "SZKK-2" and only one switch to charge the MK 108. Attachment 11504 |
