EagleCals #99 Fw 190 Fw 190 A-8s Sturmjäger JG 3 For a quick build review click here: Sturmbock As Sturmstaffel 1 evolved into IV./JG 3 (Sturm) and Major von
Kornatzki formed II./JG 4 (Sturm), the Sturm mission expanded and was more
clearly defined, the Rammjäger tactic was toned down by the new IV./JG 3
Gruppenkommandeur Wilhelm Moritz. It was a full-fledged bomber assault unit and
ramming was discouraged. Mr. Moritz was interviewed in Canada several times by
Jerry Crandall and much of the details were discussed regarding the Sturmjäger
aircraft. These flashy, specialized Sturmbock (Male Sheep-Ram) machines with
their Blue-Black cowlings were symbols of the proud unit. EagleParts #45-32
Common Prop Blades or EP#46-32 Prop blades with external weights, EagleParts
#57-32 Sturmbock conversion and EagleParts #44-32 Tail wheel and yoke resins
kits are recommended to accurize the 1/32nd Fw 190 Kit. To accurize the 1/48th
kits, EagleParts #6-48 Set of Fw wheels resin kit is recommended. Contact Eagle
Editions Ltd. for possible availability of prop blades in 1/48th scale.
EagleParts #21-32 or EP#21-48 Corrected Drop Tank resin kits are also
recommended. Color note: Recovered cowl pieces from crashed IV./JG 3 aircraft have a Blue-Black cast very close to FS 26044. Black and White photos of these aircraft do appear to have a slightly different cast or lighter value than the Black of the Balkenkreuz or the IV. Gruppe welle (wave) over the White RV band. The cowling and spinners also appear to have a semi-gloss luster. As this color weathers and ages, it definitely turns to a Bluish-Black (FS 26044). In order to achieve an accurate color for these cowlings and spinner, it is recommended mixing 10% RLM 24 Dark Blue with 90% Black. 48th and 32nd scales available!!
