Damn
Well that's for sure a Messerschmidt BF109. I believe it's a E model, but I'm not 100% sure there. As for the engine, it was powered by a Dalhmer-Benz engine but I could not tell you the model.

That's the German's attempt at an air to air missile Rhurstall was it's name I believe. Wasn't it TV or wire guided?

Good job. That is the BF109E, powered by a Daimler-Benz DB605 engine.

Signals to operate control surfaces on the tail were sent via two wires (a method chosen to avoid jamming),[3] which unwound from bobbins housed within long, bullet-shaped fairings, themselves mounted either on the roots of an opposing pair of the larger mid-body fins (there were four, swept 45°),[4] or on those same fins' opposing tips; these contained a total of about 5.5 km (3.4 mi; 3.0 nmi) of wire.[5] The wires were controlled by a joystick in the cockpit.[6
The Germans had some pretty good stuff...

That was a pure lucky guess on it being a E model.

Well that's the thing, that scoop was used on all the 109 from the original through the final "K" version if I'm not mistaken.
Catch you later.
