Historical Note:

The world became aware of the Messerschmitt BF-109 during the Battle of Britain, and it is to this day Germany's best known aircraft. Its success lay in its accurate and stable handling. Throughout WWII, new models were developed; the BF-109G-6 "Gustav" was among the best. Built in 1941 the Bf-109G-6 was built to update and replace the BF-109F which was being outclassed by the allied fighters in the air war over Europe. The first G-6's were deliverd to fighter units in 1942 and saw extensive service on the Eastern Front. Known as the flying blister because of the bulges in front of the cockpit the BF-109G-6 was the result of many inprovements including a new engine, more armour defense, an increase in firepower which added together with heavier struts resulted in less maneuverability and only an increase on 10mph in speed. Ironically many of the world leading aces earned most of their kills in the G series BF-109.
