Historical background:

The Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4, known as "Emil," was a key single-seat fighter of the Luftwaffe during the early campaigns of World War II, including the Battle of Britain (1940). It belonged to the German air force, but was occasionally used by allied countries of the Third Reich as well. The E-4 variant featured modified armament (four machine guns and two MG FF/M cannons) as well as a more powerful DB 601Aa engine. The aircraft set standards for aerial combat during 1939-1941 and also took part in the legendary skirmishes over the English Channel.
