This aircraft is seen here as "Gelbe 6" of 3./JG1 at the old location of the Imperial War Museum in London - South Lambeth, UK. The aircraft moved to Duxford in October 2012. This 120235 was captured by Allies at Leck, Germany in May 1945 as "Rote 6" (2./JG1) and taken to the UK. It went to Farnborough for testing as "AM68" but actually it never flew. After withdrawal it was taken to RAF Cranwell in August 1946 where it was put on display/storage. In 1960 it was handed over to the Imperial War Museum. It was restored becoming "Gelbe 6".
