The basic german fighter is supposed to be the Messerschmitt Bf 109F yet the image shows Heinkel He 100 "Blitz" (see the fuselage symbol). The next model is supposed to be a Bf 109G yet the image shows a Bf 109K (or a G-series AS variant), the Bf 109K image as interceptor model shows the Bf 109G instead - swap images and it's fine. The next model is supposed to be a Fw 190D but shows a Fw 190A - please find a Fw 190D image and use the previous image for the Fw 190A interceptor.

The basic german naval bomber is supposed to be the Dornier Do 217 yet the image show a Dornier Do 17. The next model is supposed to be a Focke-Wulf Fw 200 but image shows a Junkers Ju 390.

The german 5cm PaK 38 image shops the poop-gun 3,7cm PaK35/36 - gun barrel would be way longer.

The german jagdpanther brigade in fact shows a Jagdpanzer IV. The light armor brigade supposed to show a Panzer II L show an earlier Panzer II

The german armored division supposed to be a Panzer III looks more like a Panzer IV - awful image btw.

The german Graf-Zeppelin-class CV show an image of the USS Ranger, a Zeppelin image is shown as an earlier model CV.

The germany type XB sub shows an image of a type XXIII sub.

There seem to be some image mixup in the german DD as well - DD2 looks too new, dd3 and dd4 too old.

Please, developers, turn an attention to details. The worst thing concerning minor mistakes aren't those mistakes themselves, but the general loss of certainty that other more important elements has been gotten right. (With all the respect, if someone errs in choosing a correct picture for a model, how can anybody be sure that there isn't flaws in code, for example?) Arsenal of Democracy is too classy game to allow mistakes like this. Let it be perfect. And thanks, Denniss, for your eye for details.

I think we might have to cut some slack on the German DD. Pictures of late model German destroyers are likely to be pretty hard to come by since all of them were either cancelled or bombed out while building. That said, it should be possible to tweak the existing model set within available limits. Without travelling too far into downtown Nerdsville, I'd suggest that:

Ill_div_ger_25_0 is probably appropriate. It looks very much like a WWI T120 class DD and so fills the role. The only reasonable replacement would be the Type 1923 Torpedo-boat.
Ill_div_ger_25_1 is also probably the best that can be managed. It's identified as the Z.1 class (authorised in 1934) and the image matches the Z.1 type.
Ill_div_ger_25_2 also seems to be of a Z.1 type however (the gentle rake of the bow is a give-a-way). Maybe it should be replaced with an image of a Type 1936 Z.17 class ship.
Ill_div_ger_25_3 looks very much like a Type 36A Z.23 class and is a reasonable fit all things taken into account.
Ill_div_ger_25_4 is a definite problem, though. It's actually a pic of the Torpedo-boat Seeadler (launched 1926) and so is way off the mark. Unfortunately, the only available replacement would be the Type 1936B Z.35 class and that, as the class title suggests, is still well short of an ideal match.

Images of all of these should be available online, but if necessary I can take them off hard copies and forward them.
