[The main character of the increasingly powerful Luftwaffe]
The main fighter of the Luftwaffe during World War II was the Messerschmitt Bf109. Among them, the G-6 type is equipped with a Daimler-Benz DB605 engine with a takeoff output of 1475 horsepower, and the armament in the nose has been upgraded from a 7.92mm machine gun to a 13mm machine gun in order to counter Allied aircraft with high bulletproof properties. Its external feature is a bulge called a ``boile'' on the side of the nose, which was created to cover the bullet ejection chute of the 13mm machine gun. More than 13,000 aircraft, the largest number in the series, were mass-produced from February 1943 to February 1945, and fought hard in bomber interception and air superiority battles until the end of the war.

A 300 liter drop tank mounted on the lower fuselage is also included. The canopy can be opened or closed. The inside of the cockpit is made up of a total of 12 parts, including the seat, throttle lever, and circuit breaker panel, giving it a dense finish.
