Product Information

When it was discovered in 1937 that the RAF was planning eight-gun batteries for its new Hawker Hurricane and Supermarine Spitfire fighters, it was decided that the Bf109 should be more heavily armed. The problem was that the only place available to mount additional guns was in the wings. Only one spot was available in each wing, between the wheel well and slats, with room for only one gun, either a 7.92mm MG 17 machine gun, or a 20mm MG FF or MG FF/M cannon.

heavy fighter; combined two Me 309 fuselages into one airframe, as with Bf 109Z and Me 409 (development abandoned)The Me262 as the first series production jet engine fighter plane represents a milestone in aeronautical technology. It is a privilege to welcome the legendary Me262 to the UK skies." Messerschmitt also conducted a series of flight tests with the series production Me 262. Dive tests determined that the Me262 went out of control in a dive at Mach0.86, and that higher Mach numbers would cause a nose-down trim that the pilot could not counter. The resulting steepening of the dive would lead to even higher speeds and the airframe would disintegrate from excessive negative g loads. [108] Hahn, Fritz (1963).

In July 1937, not long after the public debut of the new fighter, three Bf109Bs took part in the Flugmeeting airshow in Zürich under the command of Major Seidemann. They won in several categories: First prize in a speed race over a 202km course, first prize in the class A category in the international Alpenrundflug for military aircraft, and victory in the international Patrouillenflug category.

This airframe, Wrknr. 111711, was the first Me 262 to come into Allied hands when its German test pilot defected on 31 March 1945. The aircraft was then shipped to the United States for testing. [84] Like most 20-somethings, Travis Messerschmitt loves coffee. A graduate student at the University of North Texas in Denton, Messerschmitt drinks several cups every day, usually adding milk, along with vanilla or peppermint coffee creamer.

The final production version of the Bf109 was the K series or Kurfürst, introduced in late 1944, powered by the DB 605D engine with up to 2,000PS (1,471kW; 1,973hp). Though externally akin to the late production Bf109G series, a large number of internal changes and aerodynamic improvements were incorporated that improved its effectiveness and remedied flaws, keeping it competitive with the latest Allied and Soviet fighters. [6] [54] The Bf109's outstanding rate of climb was superior to many Allied adversaries including the P-51D Mustang, Spitfire Mk. XIV and Hawker Tempest Mk. V. [55]

Like most of the superweapons introduced by the Nazis, the Me 262 Swallow had little impact on the war. Though impressive in design and capabilities, it was an aircraft that was rushed off the drawing board too soon in a desperate attempt to turn the tide of war. Thompson, J. Steve; Smith, Peter C.

The jet was captured in 1945 by a special U.S. Army Air Force team led by Col. Harold Watson. Known as Watson’s Whizzers, this unit was on the lookout for advanced technology to help the American aviation program.
