The Bf 109 G-2 was designed as a fighter aircraft and thus excels in the role of it. It reaches its maximal performance with of course no secondary weapons equipped. However, if one 20 mm MG 151/20 is not sufficient, especially against bombers, utilising two extra MG 151/20 in form of gunpods will noticeably increase firepower at the expense of a slight loss in flight performance.

  • 1 x 20 mm MG 151 cannon, nose-mounted (200 rpg)
  • 2 x 7.92 mm MG 17 machine guns, nose-mounted (500 rpg = 1,000 total)

  • 1 x Flam C 250 incendiary bomb
  • 2 x 20 mm MG 151 cannons (135 rpg = 270 total)

Usage in battles

The Bf 109 G-2 was designed as a fighter aircraft and thus excels in the role of it. It reaches its maximal performance with of course no secondary weapons equipped. However, if one 20 mm MG 151/20 is not sufficient, especially against bombers, utilising two extra MG 151/20 in form of gunpods will noticeably increase firepower at the expense of a slight loss in flight performance.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Great climb rate compared to foes like P-47D, P-51D
  • Fast acceleration thanks to small airframe
  • Decently manoeuvrable, can dogfight clumsier planes like the P-47
  • 20mm HE shells are destructive against similar planes (e.g. Spitfire, P-51, A6M5)
  • Nose-mounted guns are beginner-friendly to aim especially in simulator
  • Able to carry bombs, effectively acting as a multi-role aircraft
  • Can carry 2 x 20 mm gunpods for bomber-hunting

Cons:

  • Inadequate turning ability at all speeds compared to agile opponents (e.g. A6M, Yak-3, Spitfire)
  • Poor high speed performance, disadvantaged against high-speed fighters like P-47, P-38
  • 20 mm cannon has rather limited ammo, trigger discipline is required
  • Overall fragile structure and light armour, cannot take any hits
  • Engine overheats easily when constantly engaging WEP
  • Cockpit visibility is heavily obstructed by nose, razorback and framing

History

In 1942, Finland started negotiations with Germany about the purchase of fighter aircraft for the Finnish Air Force. In December of the same year, an agreement was found and 30 Bf-109 G-2's were bought by Finland and by January 1943 the Bf-109 G-2's were assigned to a freshly redesigned No.34 Squadron (LeLv 34) being led by Major Olavi Ehrnroot. 17 Finnish Pilots were sent to retrieve the fighters, 16 G-2's were flown back to Finland in the March of 1943. The rest of the purchased fighters were retrieved in the May of the same year. In 1944, 30 more fighters were purchased, including G-6 and G-8 variants.
