The Bf109 is one of the most famous Luftwaffe fighters during WWII, more than 33,000 examples were produced in various versions. The strengths of the Bf109 included its good rate of climb and acceleration in the dive. The Bf109 G models produced from the summer of 1942 showed some obvious changes compared to the previous Bf109 F variant.
The G-5/G-6 featured an engine-firing MK 151/20mm cannon. Two MG 131s were installed above the engine. The belt feeding of the increased armament necessitated an aerodynamic revision of the engine cover, which gave the machine the characteristic dents. The G-6 was used extensively on all fronts from March 1943 until the end of the war. Later production batches of the Bf109 G-6 received the fixed rear cabin glazing in a one-piece design, which greatly improved rearward visibility. The rudder unit underwent another revision with its increase and the use of a higher and larger rudder. The G-6 was the most produced type of the Bf109 with 13,000 machines.
