Product Dimensions: 7.34 x 8.14 x 2.13 in.

Model History and Information: The Bf 109G-5 was a pressurised-cabin variant of the Gustav series, produced from 1943. Jagdgeschwader 54, known as the Green Hearts, was a Luftwaffe fighter wing that fought predominantly on the Eastern Front, supporting operations in the northern Russian sector around Leningrad; during 1943 it began re-equipping with the Fw 190 while retaining Bf 109s in service. Walther Dahl (1916-1985) was a Luftwaffe fighter pilot and ace credited with a substantial number of victories on the Eastern Front and in the Defence of the Reich. Available reference sources document his service principally with other fighter units, so this specific aircraft-and-unit assignment is not independently confirmed.
