Combat Colours no 1 - The Messerschmitt Bf109

The Messerschmitt Bf 109E on the Western Front
By Peter Scott Series Editor Neil Robinson

 
The objective of this book is to document the colour schemes carried by the Luftwaffe's Messerschmitt Bf 109E fleet on the 'Western Front' throughout 1940. This period encompassed the 'Phoney War' ('Sitzkrieg'); the assaults on Denmark and Norway; the offensive on France and the Low Countries; and the Battle of Britain.
Many other works have covered Luftwaffe colour schemes in detail, so by way of an introduction, I would like to explain how the colour schemes of the following profiles were established. This preamble therefore takes a slightly different perspective from previous works.
