Description
The Bf109 series of fighter aircraft was the work horse of the German Luftwaffe during WW2. With the Bf109E-3 version the first to see major production output. Greatly improved over the earlier 109's, its more powerful Daimler Benz engine, better armament, and excellent acceleration made it one of the real power fighters in the skies over Europe. The major external differences are the 20mm cannon extending from the wing leading edges, and the rounded, older type of cockpit canopy and windscreen. Messerschmitt's Bf109E-4/7 aircraft, until the appearance of the F model near the end of the Battle of Britain, were the Luftwaffe's main fighters. They were used in all theaters of operations during WW2. While the design and configuration of the E-4 was basically the same as the E-3, it had the improved square canopy. The E-7 version had a centerline rack mounted to the fuselage for a 300 liter fuel tank or bomb, plus most of the later E-7's also used a pointed, bullet shaped spinner.
