63 TF-102A were built. Most units flying the airplane had one or two of them.

Another eBay find. Hoping this one won't stay in the stash too long, looks like a really nice kit.

The first 2 look so interesting! I'll look Forward to them!

Beside that, never seen second sign on German plane before!

Do you mean the red band? Its the Reich Defence marking. The Red band was used by JG1.

Thank you, dear Wurger! Another question is about that German biplane, Albatros D.V , what is that star-like emblem?

i think Artesh is thinking about the black star on the Albatross Wojtek

crossed posts !

 

[Wurger]

The Albatros D.V belonged to the Jasta 26 and was flown by Lt. Xavier Dannhuber. The black-white bands were the squadron emblem while the star marking was apparently Dannhuber's personal insignia.

Just a marketing hook. Almost nobody heard about Xavier Dannhuber but about Bruno Loerzer almost all.
