The Messerschmitt Bf. 109 E3 was one of the most famous airplanes in service with the Luftwaffe, and used primarily asa fighter and high altitude interceptor. It was one of the first truly modern fighters, featuring an allmetal fuselage construction, closed canopy, retractable landing gear, and a liquidcooled, inverted aero engine. The Bf. 109, in different versions, was first used during the Spanish Civil War and was still in service at the dawn of the jet age, at the end of World War II, when it was still the backbone of the Luftwaffes fighter force.
