The prototype Bf109A first flew in 1935. The later E model was more powerful and better armed and by the summer of 1940 over 500 were in service for the offensive against Great Britain. By this time, the 109E had already proved to be a competent fighter aircraft in the skies above Poland, France and the low countries. It met its match over England and was shown to be inferior to the RAFs Spitfire.

One of the greatest fighter aircraft of all time, the Messerschmitt Bf109 was fast and heavily armed and in the hands of a competent pilot, was a fearsome adversary. Continually developed throughout WWII, later variants of this Battle of Britain era Bf109 were still in service at the end of the Second World War.

Good and easy to build model. Some pieces were extremely thin and broke off easily.

Great product, do buy!
This is a great starters kit to make! Very good but hard to fit small parts as they can break very easy. Overall I had lots of fun building this, and this was one of the many amazing Airfix models in my colection! P.S: Only buy Airfix models as they are in my opinion the best quality, fun and easy to make over any other model brands.

Great, but has some issues...
This was a fun and amazing build, yet it was extremely hard to pull pieces off the spruces. In the end, I had to use my pocketknife. I ended up with the cannons broken in half because it refused to budge. The grey paint was also the wrong color, making it slightly bluish. Still, it was a very good set.
