Bf 110D-3 with FuG 202 radar

Messerschmitt Bf110D-3 4./NJG 1

Bf 110 operating in St.Trond, Belgium. The aircraft is an elderly Bf110D-3 G9+FM from 4./NJG 1 which has been retrofitted with FuG 202 radar.The first four FuG 202 radars which were delivered to operational units entered service with II./NJG 1 in February 1942. It is very possible this AC was one of them. The 110 was also retrofitted with DB 601N engines identified by the large white "N" on the engine cowling. This marking was needed because the DB 601N engines required higher octane fuel. There are the six victory bars on the rudder.
