take some wind out of the sails of the armour side from the 2 tanks found in rivers and swamps , this is a much easier recovery compared to those

Thank you for reposting this

as with the German T-34 that appears every two weeks in Armorama, this is quite old news .. do not remember when it first came up, but I would say at least 5 years ago.

Forgot the details, but it was some kind of Schlachtflugzeug or Jabo..

all the best

I had not seen this before. The FW 190 seems to be in very good condition. It would be cool to stumble upon one of these in the forest
