There is also vesrion Bf109E-1/B with bomb rack under the cetre plane for the ETC 500 bomb.Windshield had rounded in top section and transparent, as on E-3. Cockpit interior is the same as on the E-3 but have to note that from the E-3 interior became RLM66 and before RLM02 was inside.

The E-1 stayed in production longer than the E-3. The E-1/B (at least those built in mid-1940, after production of the E-3 had ceased) had the angular windshield/canopy.
