Fighter aicraft of WW2. The Messerschmitt Bf 109
By the outbreak of the Second World War, the German Luftwaffe possessed more than 3, 500 frontline aircraft. Over one third of these were single engine fighters and for the next six years one of these fighters would become the flagship of the German fighter force - the Messerschmitt BF 109. This legendary aircraft remained in operational services throughout the war, fighting on all fronts and in doing so was responsible for shooting down twice as many enemy aircraft as any other fighter plane in the annals of military history.
