National Air and Space Museum Me 163B (191301)

View of the left rear fuselage, showing many details. The remains of both 'FE-500' and 'T2-500' are visible, painted on an large patch of a more bronze-green color. The original Werknummer 191301 is also peeping through the paint! Could the Swastika and the mottling on the top of the fin be original? Also visible are the late-type cooling slots near the nozzle, and the partial wheel cover.
