Hi Rez FW190A 'Green-3' of JG300 flown by Friedrich-Karl "Nose"Mueller.

Mueller was a 32year old  ex Lufthansa and Bomber/transport pilot and friend of his boss Hajo Herrmann in July/August 1943 during the inception of the 'Wilde Sau' raids on British bombers from their base at Bonn-Hangelar.

He scored a total of 30 kills as a pilot of nightfighter aircraft and was in fact the top scoring 'Single engine' night ace of the war, the others being pilots of twin engined aircraft (Me262's, 110's, 410's,Ju88's etc) 

With the advent of the RAF new H2S Navigational aid and 'Chaff' or 'Window' the german radar aircraft were all but useless against the british heavies, and the inclusion of radar equipped Beaufighters and Mosquito's, further harassed the nightfighter forces in their Do-17's Me 110's and Ju-88's. 

Mueller scored 23 kills using these 'Wilde sau' tactics whereby the Luftwaffe group would co-ordinate with the local AA commanders to cease shooting and attempt to bathe the bombers in their spotlights meanwhile the cities were to be 'lit up' as they would normally be in peacetime while the Luftwaffe pilots would climb above the bombers and pounce on them as they were bathed in light or sillhouetted against the city lights. 

The Wilde Sau tactics were ordered to be used by all nightfighters untill an answer to the radar shortcomings could be found.

This skin uses the Hi Rez 3dz's made by Mr. Johnson.
