It was awarded to Luftwaffe personnel who had successfully combatted and destroyed enemy low-altitude aircraft – i.e., low-flying combat aircraft that were particularly dangerous for ground troops and infrastructure. Due to the extreme rarity of original specimens, a clear distinction between an original and a collector's reproduction is difficult even for experts. Armbands of this type are highly sought after by specialist Luftwaffe collectors and researchers. Also available: Luftwaffe Pilot's Badge Cloth (Item no. 32.971) and Luftwaffe Uniform Eagle (Item no. 32.977, 32.978).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBulk order pays off: Combine several items and save on shipping costs!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Militaria-Hoya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53420515885385,"sku":"21966","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/9673\/5817\/files\/21.966a.jpg?v=1764334558","url":"https:\/\/www.militaria-hoya.com\/en\/products\/armelband-luftwaffe-tieffliegervernichtung-abzeichen-orden-uniform","provider":"Militaria Hoya","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
