	Messerschmitt Bf 109 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Messerschmitt Bf 109 was a World War II fighter aircraft designed by Willy Messerschmitt in the early 1930s, the first truly modern fighter of the era combining the features of all-metal monocoque construction, a closed canopy and a retractable landing gear.
		The Bf 109 was the standard fighter of the Luftwaffe from just before the start of the war, and spent the first half of the war locked in combat with the Hawker Hurricane and Supermarine Spitfire.
		Messerschmitt responded with the updated Me 155A series, but work on the ship was again canceled and the Me 155 was later re-purposed as a high-altitude interceptor.

	Messerschmitt Bf 109
		The Bf 109 was the standard fighter of the Luftwaffe from just before the start of the war, and spent the first half of the war locked in combat with the Supermarine Spitfire.
		The Bf 109 E-0 was identical to the V-14 except for the armament, as the E-0 had two additional MG 17 in the wings instead of the MG FF in the propeller shaft.
		The first Bf 109 F planes were not well tested, and so some planes crashed or nearly crashed, due to vibrations which caused either the wing surface to curve or break, or caused the stabilizer to break away.

	Messerschmitt Bf 109 - Germany
		Bearing in mind that the Bf 109 was to become one of the Royal Air Force's major opponents in the Second World War, it is ironic that the prototype had a British Rolls-Royce Kestrel engine when it made its first flight in September 1935.
		Simultaneously, specially prepared versions and developments of the Bf 109, fitted with greatly boosted engines, gained a series of world speed records, some of which were to remain unbeaten for 30 years.
		The fact that the Bf 109 had too limited a range to be fully effective as a bomber escort during this battle persuaded the German authorities to consider the type most useful as a defensive fighter in Europe.

		The single-spar wing was fitted with automatic leading edge slots and the inboard portions of the trailing edge carried slotted flaps.
		Unusual for a fighter, Messerschmitt gave the Bf-109 leading edge slots so that he could design a wing thin enough to reach the necessary top speeds without destroying the low-speed handling.
