Items recovered from Rechlin

F0031

Well-Known Member
Another acquisition from the Shoreham fair. As it says, these are items recovered from the Luftwaffe test cente at Rechlin.

The bakelite disc is the transit cover for the fuze cavity of a 50+kg bomb.

The transparent plastic disc is probably from some instrument.

The large aluminium piece is from the casing for the Fernbediengert FG3 antenna control unit, part of the Flugzeugfunkanlage FuG 10 radio system used by Luftwaffe bombers. See

and

and there is a picture on page 32 of the He 111 H-6 Flugzeug-Handbuch:
