Resposta to "ajuda com armamento (?) luftwaffe"

pensei nisso mas não achei nada parecido

acabei de recebr uma info la no LSP

I´ve never noticed this bright object on this F-8 Würger.

I checked my "library" and found a note on page 542 on "Fw 190 vol two" from J. Richard Smith and Eddie J. Creek:

This could have been an (experimental) camera pod, which was mounted outside the main landing gear leg.

 I never heard of such pods and this note is the only one I found so far.

To me it is the most likely explanation of this thing as there are no bomb racks mounted on the wings (ice and/or frozen snow prior to take off when a mechanic did accompany the a/c makes no sense to me as the rest of the Würger shows no snow adhering).

Why not using a camera pod on low level bombing raids to get more informations on advancing enemy troops?

I will later post some pics.

ou seja, pode ser uma camera mesmo
