Messerschmitt Bf 110E Zerstörer AG14.2 (5F+YK) W.Nr 2408 00
Profile 00: Messerschmitt Bf 110E-3, 5F+YK, of 2./Aufkl.Gr.14 Reconnaissance Bf 110E-3, 5F+YK, W. Nr. 2408, of 2./Aufkl.Gr.14. A single upper surface camouflage colour has been applied, with the previous unit's code, (4U), crudely overpainted. The theatre band on this aircraft is very wide; other Bf 110s of the Staffel in the African theatre can be seen with a thin fuselage band. The emblem is that of 2./Aufkl.Gr123, and it would appear that the emblem was left on the aircraft when it was transferred from that unit.

Photo 01: Bf 110E-3, 5F+YK, W Nr. 2408, of Autkl.Gr.14, with damage to the upper fuselage. Note that the theatre band on this aircraft is twice the width of that seen in previous photos of 5F+PK and 5F+SK. On the forward fuselage the unit emblem of 2./Autkl. Gr. 123 can be seen. It would appear that at some point Autkl. Gr. 14 took on charge some Bf 110s from 2./Autkl.Gr.123 but did not bother to remove the previous unit's emblem.
