Great shot, but isn't that the ground attack variant with the large caliber AT gun under the fuselage? Also no radar in the nose, and it's carying bombs under the wings. I'm gonna say this plane was not the one to fight mosquitos with; tanks yes, but not mosquitos.

A Bf110 G-2/R1 equipped with Flak was a long called for requirement of the RLM that finally took shape with the G-2/R1. The R1 is a factory-build serial production aircraft with a 37mm flak.

The G-4 had the Radar which was no good for the mossie as it was made mostly of balsa wood.
