One to Keep Your Eye On
With over 30,000 produced, the Messerschmitt Bf109 is the most
prolifically manufactured fighter in history;
of its variants, the G-6 was the most numerous at 13,000 aircraft.
In response to improving Allied foes in the air, Bf109 G aircraft had
the more powerful DB605 engine,
and from the G-6 were equipped with dual 13mm MG131 machine guns that
required the distinctive bulges on either side of the cockpit cowling
known as “Beule.”
The Bf109 G-6 was deployed on both the Western and Eastern fronts,
in particular dominating Soviet adversaries as it continued in service
through to the end of WWII. |
