Airfix A05120C Messerschmitt BF109E-3/ E-4 1/48

After the Dunkirk evacuation, battle-hardened Luftwaffe Bf 109 fighter pilots began operations over Britain, facing a new disadvantage for the first time. With limited fuel for their missions over England, any mechanical failure or combat damage left them vulnerable to capture, often marking a swift end to their involvement in the war.

This kit includes a plastic model of the Messerschmitt Bf 109, complete with an instruction sheet, paint guide, and decal sheet.
