This Hs 129 tankbuster was G blue with 8.(Pz.)/Schl.G.2. It was hit by AA fire and crash-landed at Toubakeur in Tunisia on 7 April 1943. With its outer wings removed it was brought to El Aouina where it was captured by the Allies. It was transported to the USA where it was repaired in a lengthy process. It is seen here with the Foreign Aircraft Evaluation Center at Freeman Army Airfield. On 24 July 1946 it crash-landed in a field at Gallatin, TN, due to fuel leakage. Its front fuselage went to the Victory Air Museum at Mundelein, IL in 1951 and in 1986 to Martin Mednis of Sydney, Australia. Note the triangular fuselage and the tiny cockpit. FE-4600 is the Foreign Evaluation serial and EB105 its previous Evaluation Branch serial.
