What Was the worst Aircraft of WWII?

[cheddar cheese]

why are some messerschmitts called BF's and some called ME's? cos with planes like the '108, '109 and '110 ive heard both the BF and them ME prefix used, where as with planes such as the '262 and '323, they are just ME's?

 

[plan_D]

I used to know. Obviously the 'Me' is for Messerchmitt, I think the Bf is for Bomber-Fighter. I don't fully know though.

 

[cheddar cheese]

im not sure if Bf is for bomber fighter, because if seen places where they referred to the '108 as a Bf-108, and it aint a bomber fighter

 

[plan_D]

If not that, it's probably another company building them. But I don't know.

 

[cheddar cheese]

ah well 8)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

could it be to do with their manufacture??

 

[plan_D]

Bavarian or Bremen Flugwerken? Maybe...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

yeah, that..................

 

[plan_D]

Do not take my word for it, honestly I do not know. That is only a guess, Erich or LG will probably shoot me down on the subject.

The Bf in Bf-109 and Bf-110 stood for Bayerische Flugzeugwerke (Bavarian Aircraft Works), which was the company name. Later designs bore the 'Me' prefix to honor Willie Messerschmitt much like the later versions of the Fw-190 became the Ta-152 to honor Kurt Tank.

 

[plan_D]

I was half right since I did get the Bavarian Aicraft Works right.

 

[Lightning Guy]

Yes you were. The whole 'Bf' or 'Me' thing is very confusing.

 

[cheddar cheese]

yes.

The Bf in Bf-109 and Bf-110 stood for Bayerische Flugzeugwerke (Bavarian Aircraft Works),

so the place that made them??

 

[Lightning Guy]

It was the name of the company.

 

[plan_D]

Now that's out of the way, and everyone still agrees the Roc was pretty bad, and maybe the worst...we're done here.
