jcasilimas Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hi guys. I'm working on BF109E-4/7, and I want to use the SKG-210 decals, (it was a E-7). I want to know the differences between both to avoid mistakes (beside from the auxiliary drop-tank). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghodges Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 According to my SSig. "Bf-109 in Action" (pt1) the difference between them is very little. Basically the E-7 was an E-4 that could accept the fuselage rack for the 300 liter drop tank or the ETC 50 or ETC 500 rack for bombs; and the spinner was pointed, with the cannon muzzle opening in the spinner being covered. Hope this helps! GIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Flynn Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Like Gil said, kitwise you need the pointed spinner, plus since your wanting to do a Jabo from the sounds of it you'll need the rack...which isn't offered in the kit. A E-7 I would also paint the entire cockpit RLM 66 if I was doing one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David M. Knights Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 E-3? Ok, I couldn't resist. E7-E4=E3. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcasilimas Posted September 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Thanks Don, I used RLM-66 for the cockpit... What is the "rack"? I'm using Eduard sets 48-445 and 49220 I'll post pictures soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using Eduard sets 48-445 and 49220 I'll post pictures soon. Bomb rack if your doing a Jabo (fighterbomber) since SKG-210 would have been a ground attack unit IIRR. You can always say the rack ain't installed IIRR.....I've never researched SKG-210 since if I ever do a Jabo Emil I have aftermarket for those parts 1/48th scale and 1/72nd scale Tamiya included the parts for some reason but never on any 1/48th scale release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
