Considering that Germans used CR.42 and Hs 126 in the anti-partisan operations even in 1944, the Hs 123 does not seems like a redundant aircraft. Just keep it away from enemy fighters and it is an useful asset.I have often read that some German general really like how rugged it is and want to start the production line again if he could,But would this extremely vulnerable plane be able to do any good on the eastern front?
Plenty of biplanes saw action in WWII, for example:I did not realize anybody else flew a bi-plane in battles
And a pretty cool one too.An Antonov An-2 is still a valuable aircraft today.
When you have almost nothing even these can remain valuable i think.valuable support to the German army.

Thats the point. You have to be be there in force and find them. Untill then, it will set agents or drop weapons and other cargo when it can. And it can carry enough for a small up rising. Just for the fun of it. In very very bad weather, landing on grand ma porch. There is a reason why some of these obsolete beast are kept.can be overhauled and shot down by a Huey helicopter?
