1:48 Eduard 8261 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-1 – ProfiPACK Edition – German Fighter Aircraft Plastic Model kit

The 1:48 Eduard 8261 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-1 ProfiPACK Edition is a well-equipped plastic model kit of a German Second World War fighter aircraft. This edition focuses on the Bf 109E-1, part of the famous Emil series, and gives you Eduard plastic parts, Eduard decals, five marking options, pre-painted PE parts and a painting mask for a clean finish.

The Messerschmitt Bf 109 was a German single-engine fighter with a metal structure, low-wing layout and classic tail. The prototype first flew on 29 May 1935 and series production ran from 1936 to 1945. With an estimated total of around 35,000 aircraft produced across all variants, the Bf 109 became the standard and most-produced Luftwaffe fighter of the Second World War. Its origins go back to a 1933 Luftwaffe competition for a new fighter aircraft. Although the project initially lost to the He 112, Willie Messerschmitt managed to keep it alive, and it eventually became the main fighter aircraft of the Luftwaffe.

The Bf 109E Emil was a particularly famous version. It used a Daimler-Benz 601A or N engine and was the first Bf 109 to use a three-blade propeller instead of a two-blade propeller. The Emil fought in the French campaign, over England, in North Africa and on the Eastern Front. Adolf Galland also began his career on the Bf 109E, making this version especially interesting for fans of Luftwaffe history.
