The Messerschmitt Bf 109 is a Single-engine German single-engine fighter designed in the 1930s by German engineer Willy Messerschmitt in response to a tender from the Reichsluftfahrtministerium (RLM) for the design of a modern fighter to equip the fledgling Luftwaffe. Around the most powerful engine available, a Junkers Jumo 210 12-cylinder inverted V, Messerschmitt designed the thinnest possible airframe, using very innovative techniques he had developed for the Bf 108 light aircraft. The prototype Bf 109, superior to its competitors, was finally chosen, despite the enmity of the Minister of the Air, Erhard Milch, towards Messerschmitt. Suite à sa participation à la guerre d’Espagne, le Bf 109 was re-engineered by a Daimler Benz engine to practice even more effectively the new air combat tactics it had developed. The first part of the Second World War saw an undivided domination of this aircraft and its doctrine of employment.
