This is the BF 109G-6 "Capt. Constantin Cantacuzino" W.Nr.166133 Italy 27th August 1944 in 1:48 scale by Hobby Master.
The Messerschmitt Bf 109G‑6 flown by Capt. Constantin “Bâzu” Cantacuzino (W.Nr. 166133) was a key aircraft of the famed Romanian ace during operations over Italy on 27 August 1944. Cantacuzino, Romania’s top fighter ace of World War II, piloted the G‑6 variant equipped with the DB 605 engine and upgraded armament, engaging Allied aircraft in the skies over Italy while Romania was still part of the Axis. Known for his exceptional marksmanship and tactical skill, Cantacuzino’s missions in the Bf 109G‑6 exemplified the skill of Eastern European pilots on the Western Front, and this sortie occurred shortly before Romania switched sides later that year.
