Re: Messerschmitt 109 Design Problems

The war was won by superior economies and superior weapon systems. Mustang was only a part of a system but it was a high quality part, outclassing respective German pieces. There is a general tendency trying to prove German superiority in several areas, but mostly it is not justified at all.
Returning back to Me 109, it generally lacked development potential and it was not possible to put as much war load as necessary into it. No room for more weapons, more fuel, teardrop canopy, etc.
