Jaboschwarm I./JG 54, Krasnogvardeysk, Soviet Union, Spring 1943

JG 54 received its first Fw 190A-4s in early

February 1943, with white camouflage on the

upper surfaces and RLM 65 on the bottom. On

February 19, 1943, JG 54 scored its 4,000th aerial

victory, achieved by an Fw. Otto Kittel. After the

winter period, the upper surfaces of the aircraft

were painted black RLM 70, dark green RLM 71

and brown. As was customary with JG 54 in a

variety of camouflage fields. The winter white

paint remained on some of the less worn areas.

The Roman numeral III marked aircraft is an

example of such a state and the color scheme is

partly a mere reconstruction based on the better

documented aircraft of JG 54. Roman numerals

were used to mark staff aircraft in this period.
