The Bf 109 G-2 is very similar in performance to the Bf 109 G-2/trop. The major difference between the two is the Bf 109 G-2 is faster than its brother but it offers little to no support when facing allied (USA, Britain, USSR, etc.) opponents. It turns better than most aircraft in its tier and holds energy very well.
 +
 
 +
When used in battles it is best to climb to an altitude of 10,000 ft or more. Maintaining an energy advantage with this aircraft is the best tactic to maintain when in battle. The Bf 109 G-2 preforms extremely well at higher altitudes with the ability to outmanoeuvre most of its opponents. The Bf 109 G-2 is universal when it comes to a preferred flight characteristic but boom and zoom is preferred for the best results.

The Messerschmitt Bf 109 was a single-seat monoplane fighter used by the Luftwaffe before and during WWII. It was used as a fighter, interceptor, high-altitude interceptor, fighter-bomber and reconnaissance aircraft.
 +
 
 +
The Bf 109 G "Gustav" was the most mass-produced variant of the 109, powered by the Daimler-Benz DB 605. The 605 was basically a DB 601 with the cylinder block redesigned to increase displacement from 33.9, to 35.7 liters - which resulted in 175 extra HP with no significant change in size. The Gustav also received improved armament. Instead of the previously standard 7.92 mm MG 17 machine guns, 13 mm MG 131 heavy machine guns were used. The heavier guns lead to distinct cowling bulges, needed to cover the breechblocks on the new guns.
 +
 
 +
However, the increased equipment led to heavier weight on the Gustav, in fact 10% heavier than the Friedrich. Compared to the much earlier Bf 109B, the Gustav was almost 46% heavier. The new aircraft had begun to reach front-line units by May 1942. In essence, the Bf 109 design had reached its peak, and would ideally need to be replaced with newer, more modern designs. However, the troubled Me 209 replacement was still in development and things at the front were beginning to look ominous for Germany. Consequently, the RLM decided to continue to further refine the 109.

The Bf 109 G-2 comes with a nose-mounted single 20 mm MG 151 (200 rounds) autocannon and two synchronized 7.92 mm MG 17 (1,000 rounds) machine guns all located on the nose of the aircraft. With these stock armaments it is all but a breeze to get on target offering little to no drop when firing. Ammunition conservation is not an issue but pilots may want to pay close attention to their 20 mm with its 200 rounds.

Usage in battles

The Bf 109 G-2 is very similar in performance to the Bf 109 G-2/trop. The major difference between the two is the Bf 109 G-2 is faster than its brother but it offers little to no support when facing allied (USA, Britain, USSR, etc.) opponents. It turns better than most aircraft in its tier and holds energy very well.

When used in battles it is best to climb to an altitude of 10,000 ft or more. Maintaining an energy advantage with this aircraft is the best tactic to maintain when in battle. The Bf 109 G-2 preforms extremely well at higher altitudes with the ability to outmanoeuvre most of its opponents. The Bf 109 G-2 is universal when it comes to a preferred flight characteristic but boom and zoom is preferred for the best results.

History


Archive of the in-game description

The Messerschmitt Bf 109 was a single-seat monoplane fighter used by the Luftwaffe before and during WWII. It was used as a fighter, interceptor, high-altitude interceptor, fighter-bomber and reconnaissance aircraft.

The Bf 109 G "Gustav" was the most mass-produced variant of the 109, powered by the Daimler-Benz DB 605. The 605 was basically a DB 601 with the cylinder block redesigned to increase displacement from 33.9, to 35.7 liters - which resulted in 175 extra HP with no significant change in size. The Gustav also received improved armament. Instead of the previously standard 7.92 mm MG 17 machine guns, 13 mm MG 131 heavy machine guns were used. The heavier guns lead to distinct cowling bulges, needed to cover the breechblocks on the new guns.

However, the increased equipment led to heavier weight on the Gustav, in fact 10% heavier than the Friedrich. Compared to the much earlier Bf 109B, the Gustav was almost 46% heavier. The new aircraft had begun to reach front-line units by May 1942. In essence, the Bf 109 design had reached its peak, and would ideally need to be replaced with newer, more modern designs. However, the troubled Me 209 replacement was still in development and things at the front were beginning to look ominous for Germany. Consequently, the RLM decided to continue to further refine the 109.

  • Finnish Air Force pilot Ilmari Juutilainen transitioned from the Brewster Buffalo to the Bf 109 G-2 and felt that it was an extremely aggressive aircraft, one that helped him score 56 of his 94 kills including Soviet La-5 fighters which he felt were more agile than the 109.

  • Croatian ace pilot Cvitan Galić racked up 23 of his 38 kills in the Bf 109 G-2. Most of these kills were Soviet fighters and bombers from the Eastern front, however, Cvitan was also able to down a Spitfire V.
