The Messerschmitt Bf 109 is a fighter aircraft designed and originally produced by the German manufacturer Bayerische Flugzeugwerke (BFW). With over 36,000 units produced during the Second World War, it formed the backbone of the German fighter force.
Originally designed as an interceptor, it was developed to fulfil a variety of roles: bomber escort, fighter-bomber, day and night fighter, all-weather fighter, ground-attack and aerial reconnaissance.
It featured a monocoque, all-metal construction, a closed canopy, retractable landing gear and was powered by a liquid-cooled inverted V12 engine. Its maiden flight took place on 29 May 1935.
Supplied to several countries during the Second World War, it continued to be operated by a number of nations.
There were 32 variants: from the Bf 19A of 1937 to the Bf 109K-6 in 1944
Use in Switzerland:
The Swiss Air Force operated 10 D-1s, 89 E-3a variants, 2 F-4s and 14 G-6s, making a total of 115 aircraft which, alongside the Morane D3801s and C-36s, formed the Swiss Air Force during the Second World War
Extract from an article « Es blieb ein Luftschloss» in *Cockpit* magazine dated 10/2026: “At the end of May 1944, personnel from 3. (Süd) Flugzeug-Űberführungsgeschwaders flew a total of twelve Bf 109G-6s, fresh off the production line at Messerschmitt GmbH in Regensburg-Obertraubling, from the Neubiberg Air Force Base near Munich to Dübendorf. Unlike the aircraft allocated to the German Luftwaffe, the Me 109 G-6s destined for Switzerland were not fitted with the FuG 25a ‘Erstling’ friend-or-foe identification system or the MW-50 injection system, which provided a temporary power boost of 300 PS to the DB-605 engine. An older Lorenz FuG 16 Z radio was also fitted. These twelve Me 109 G-6s were given the military registration numbers J-701 to J-712 by the Air Force”.
The version offered by FLYINGIRON in original Swiss livery is the Bf 109 G. Only 12 aircraft of this type were purchased in May 1944, to which must be added two further Gs that were interned following landings in Switzerland for various reasons: the first on 29 March 1944 and the second on 17 December of the same year. This makes a total of 14 aircraft, which were registered as J-701 to J-712, plus J-713 and J-714. Following the withdrawal of the 109Gs in 1945, none survived. A Bf E-3a is on display at theairforcecenter.ch/luftfahrzeuge/ Museum.
We will therefore be flying this fascinating aircraft in an original Swiss livery, specially created at our request for SwissMilSim.
Flyingiron’s model is particularly comprehensive and accurately reproduces the advanced systems for the time and the performance characteristics that made this aircraft one of the best fighters of the Second World War.
It is difficult to fly even in simulation; a smooth transition is recommended.
A very comprehensive and detailed flight manual by Flyingiron is available, as well as a supplement provided by SwissMilSim.
Happy flying
