No other Emil subtypes were authorized. In fact, the Bf 109 E-1/B, E-3/B and E-4/B were built to carry only 50, 250 and 500 kg bomb(s) in various combinations. The E-7 and E-8 also carried these bombs but without any notation change to their series designations.

Hi Harold,
not only BF109 E was able to carry this SD-2, G- version too. Look at the link below to find "Rüstsatz IV" for BF109 G
