Lusekofte Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 That is a Japanese long range recce aircraft. Captured and tested by US. It is widely suspected its design is based on JU 88 which they received for trial. I just can’t remember its name 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief_Mouser Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 I think that we need to go for the model on this one. I'll say E-1. 2 Quote The Bell Inn, Bath.

The reason I posted it, is this is in Italy and was nicknamed "Axis Sally". What was cool is that during a research 'expedition' I made contact with the family of a Group Surgeon who served with the 325Th FG...and who had some film footage of this in colour. Having gained access to that footage, here's a screenshot of the same aircraft in colour. I don't know of any other colour footage of that aircraft 🙂 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief_Mouser Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 (edited) Wow, good stuff. 👍 I presume it was used as a squadron/group hack? Any idea how they got hold of it? 🍻 Edited October 1 by Chief_Mouser 1 Quote The Bell Inn, Bath.
