Was Klaus Lambio's Bf 109G a G-6?
I'm looking at EagleCals 1/32 #88 and it says unknown Werknummer....

 

[Wurger]

A couple of net sources says yes she was.

 

[Lucky13]

Much appreciated young man!

 

[Lucky13]

'13'?

 

[Wurger]

Possible...

 

[Lucky13]

I'm gonna stick my neck out and say that it's a '13'...

 

[Wurger]

Same here.

 

[Lucky13]

Now....when, where, what factory and what type of T-34/76?

 

[Wurger]

The turret is of the Mickey Mouse type without the commander's cupola... that indicates a model assembled from 1942 to the end of 1943. The one was called model 1942 or 1943. I would say it is T-34/76 model 1942. That's a pity we can't see wheels but I would say the tank was made by the Factory No.183 in Nizhny Tagil.

Regarding where and when... I would say, the Battle of Kharkov in 1942/1943

 

[Lucky13]

Number 2, perhaps...?

 

[Wurger]

Yep .. number 2

 

[Lucky13]

Except for the square fuel tanks....maybe something like this?

And here someting interesting.... T-34 tanks of the 5º Guards Armoured Brigade; in the foreground the Brigade Commander, General Mikhailov (right) talking with the Commissar Kaplustov - May 1942..

I would say the middle tank is marked with 10-13 number while the first one is of 10-12.Am I right?

I think yes. But there are minor differences as well.
