The first German mass produced 109 fighter was the Bf-109E that has been mistakenly referred to as the Me-109. The Bf is the designator for the Bayerische Flugzeugwerke (BFW) (Bavarian Aircraft Works) that roduced the original aircraft. In 1938 Messerschmitt took over BFW but throughout WWII German handbooks and documents referred to the aircraft as the Bf-109. By the end of 1939 the Bf-109E (Emil) had replaced all other 109 variants and equipped 13 Gruppens with 40 aircraft each. The Bf-109 was the main single-engine aircraft until the Fw-190 came along.
Hans-Joachim Marseille was the last of his cadet class to earn his officer commission. On August 10, 1940 he was assigned to I. (Jagd) Lehrgeschwader 2 in the northern France. On August 24, 1940 Marseille scored his first victory by downing a Hurricane. Marseille didn’t consider tactical situations and dove into dogfights adding five more victories during the Battle of Britain but was himself shot down four times. He was transferred to I./JG 27 and on September 30, 1942 he was killed over Egypt having accumulated a total of 158 victories
