Despite being a Brit who loves all WW2 aircraft, i have to say that the Bf-109F,G & K models are my absolute favourite aircraft of all time! There is something so emotive in the engine sound (as good as a Merlin!) that makes my forearm hairs stand on end. I used to be an Aircraft technician in the British Army and though helicopters were fun, I'd have loved to have had the chance to have gotten my paws on a Gustav! What a machine - so functional, deadly and elegant. Well done Willy!!!

The G-10 was Willy Messerschmitt's attempt to get his crowning achievement back on track, especially after such negative opinion from the Luftwaffe 'experience" over the G-6 variant which so many disliked and said that it was a backward step.It still mounted a formidable armament in the MK-108, 3 cm through the propeller hub and the two,Mauser 131/13, 13 mm above the engine. Best of all was the increased power from the Daimler-Benz w water /methanol injection system. But we cannot gloss over the fact that the Tags-Flieger was doomed.

In recent years, my father-in-law told me he got sent to a concentration camp toward the end of the war and that the Americans rescued him.

He ended that war working on Russian T-34 tanks in Berlin. The first chance he had he escaped to the west and was brought to America. There he meet an American woman and they raised a family together. Their son taught me history in high school. I'll never forget the history I learned with him.

It was designed for higher altitudes. The g10 reached it's max speed at 7400 Meters (around 25k feet) the same height as the p51. And obviously performed well at these altitudes. I won't say one engine is better than the other because I don't think it matters honestly. both great pieces of engineering.

Germany, Britain and the United States had their signature aircraft in WWII, and this was Germany's. It was a beautiful aircraft which maximized it's potential. It was small, light with a powerful fuel injected supercharged engine. The question I always had was the rear wheel being locked in place. The drag must have cut 10-15 mph from the speed, but the Spitfire had the same problem so maybe everything equaled out in the end.
@kubanskiloewe10 жыл бұрын
i think the sped loss of the tailwheel isn´t so high, i read about 10km/h at max speed. Sure th eF and early G models had retractable rear wheels but not completely covered like P51 or russian airplanes like Yak´s or La´s. The first and the last 109 with fully covered undercarriage front and rear was the K4 but it had problems with the rear cover so many were fixed again to stay out from the field mechanics. You have to imagine the K4 serviced from late autumn 44 till end of war. So it most times see wet, or snowy ground surface which spin dirt into the covers and wheel bay at start and landing and taxiing. Most german bases had grass runways and 109´s were supposed to take off on that.The groundcrews had really enough work to hold them in service than cleaning and lubricating these parts after any plane move. So perhaps they decided to fix the tailwheel outside and take care of the cover for the frontwheels which was certainly an improvement. But i agree, this prolonged tailwheel at the G10 disturbs much of it´s aggressive and aerodynamic look ! The K4 was more cleaner.
@mr_confuse11 ай бұрын
Another note to the ancient comment section: The retractable landing gear introduces mechanical complexity and thus an increase of resources required to assemble the plane. The added drag really wasn't worth it, which is a major reason the G10 didn't feature a at least somewhat retracted tail wheel like earlier variants.

From what I've heard, the Bf 109 was conceived as an interceptor and a dogfighter that follows Willy Messerschmitt's lightweight principle of aircraft building. A powerful engine available, fitted to the smallest airframe possible. This method of construction meant that the 109 was light, fast, agile, and a good rate of climb. The aircraft's landing gear was hinged at the wing roots, allowing for ease of maintenance (its wings can be removed for servicing without the need for additional equipment to support the fuselage), as well as simplification of the wing structure, since it did not have to bear the loads imposed upon take off and landing.
