Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Unlike the 109 F, the G has a rather hard-hitting 30mm gun available.
• Maintains excellent engine power and service ceiling characteristics.

Cons:

• Shares the exact same problem as its direct predecessor: Poor number of guns.
• No distinct change in maneuverability. Stock is again a downgrade from fully upgraded F.
• 30mm gun is very inaccurate without any modifiers.
• does not get better machine guns than those available on the 109 F.

Performance

A direct upgrade of the Bf 109 F, the Bf 109 G boasts two things: a powerful 30mm autocannon and a powerful engine. The Bf 109 G is incredibly fast and has great altitude performance, in addition to being able to climb and dive rapidly. Like the Bf 109 F, however, the Bf 109 G has a limited arsenal of guns leading to a distinct playstyle. What the Bf 109 G lacks in volume of fire, it more than makes up for with its hard-hitting 30mm autocannon. Using this method works well for the Bf 109 G:

1. Fly at high altitude and choose your target: you'll be more successful against heavy fighters, multiroles, and lightly armed bombers than other fighters, GAs, or heavy bombers with nasty AA-suites.
2. Dive in and take your target by surprise, then fire at close range- closer than the maximum range of your 30mm autocannon to maximize damage output.
3. Stay glued to your target and pump it with 30mm shells until you destroy it or until enemy backup arrives, then disengange.
4. Fly up and repeat the process.
