Warning: this is kinda long

August 23, 1940
German pilots Fritz Müeller and Hans Schmidt prepare their Messerschmitt Bf-109E's for an aerial assault on the British coast. Their mission is to provide cover for a Do-17 bomber squadron as they target hardened ground targets and British command centers.

Müeller and Schmidt takeoff from the air base

The fighters reach a cruising altitude over the English Channel
As the two pilots approached the rendezvous point, Schmidt's radar caught a British destroyer near their location. The destroyer had also seen the planes' radar signatures and prepped its AA cannons for battle.

Schmidt's plane came dangerously close to the anti-aircraft fire and flak from the destroyer
Müeller immediately pulled his machine away from the destroyer, and, seeing as his wingman and himself had no anti-ship weaponry, Schmidt attempted to turn away as well.

Müeller immediately radioed for help in escorting the dive bombers once he reached their planned rendezvous point; however, he was only met with bad news. His group commander ordered him to continue on to the British coast and take down a pair of Hawker Hurricanes patrolling the area. In addition, Müeller was informed that these Hurricanes had destroyed the Dorniers and he was to compete the objective alone.

Fritz soon spotted the coast and began scouring the air for British Hurricanes.

The German spots a lone Hurricane
Before the British pilot noticed the Bf-109 on his tail, Müeller's machine guns tore through through the hurricane's tail and fuel tank, setting his enemy alight.

The Hurricane crashes into the Channel
Fritz realized that his fuel was running low and radioed to the ground command that he was returning to base unharmed.

The Bf-109E flies back over the Channel

Ground Command: Fritz, you are cleared for landing. Müeller: Coming in now

Fritz coming in on final approach to the base

Bf-109E landed safely at base
The mission was considered a success, although Müeller's wingman Hans Schmidt was lost to AA fire.

In case you didn't catch on, this was a teaser for my new Messerchmitt Bf-109E-4 fighter! Currently sitting around 340 parts, probably will be 350-360 parts when done. It has a functional cockpit, but I was able to make it with very few parts. What do you think?
