why?

Where and when did it serve?

What does it offer over the 109E-4 and or 109F-4 we already have in the game?

A carrier variant that never served as intended? It was stripped of carrier gear and flown only on land. Not many made. It was basically an E-7 equivelant.

No to the 109T. Yes to the 109E-7!

Different wing and different flight characteristics from any other 109 that served.

Yes, it scored kills.

That is an absurd request.  The only Bf109s that were ever even carrier capable were derivatives of the Bf109E series, and even they never flew from a carrier.

It was a joke, lighten up Francis

How about we add new Russian/Italian planes before we start adding more German/American/British fighters?

Regardless of where it took off, the BF109T saw battle and scored kills.

It also took off in wartime from fields smaller than our current ports and GV fields.

sheesh
dont you get it?
It was basically an E-model. It would not be drastically different from its predecessor.
It have never flown from a carryer. Ergo, it wont be enabled from a carrier.
So what you are asking for, is to add an other 109E, disabled on CVs. I cant see why would it be any good.

The main 109 variants not being modelled in AH:
109D - very early model, would be close to an even more underpowered E with 4*BBs. Would not be competitive.
E-7 - an ~1150Hp version of the E-4
F-2 - something simmilar to the F4, but ~1150Hp isntead of 1350.
G-6, tater enabled - because it did exist. Also, would give a reason to choose the G-6 over the G-2.
G-6/AS or G-14/AS, they were very simmilar - now it would really cover a gap as a version optimized for higher altitudes. They could use the current 3D model, M-jug style. This would be my 109 of choice.
G-10 - not the old "quasi-K4", but the real G-10. As the G-14 has the top speed of ~412mph and the K-4 can sprint at ~442, this bird with its ~426mph might have a place.
H-1 - only a few were converted from F-4 and G-2 models, in the simmilar style as the 152, with much longer wings. Not sure about their combat record though.

Any ways, the russian planeset (or even the japaneese) has much bigger holes than to add one more to the already 6 109-versions...

It has a different wing than the rest of the 109 variants.

It never operated from a carrier but flew out of very short fields and was fitted with the 1150hp engine as found in the E7.

A 109t was the first plane to shoot down a b17.

Bud Anderson shot one down.

They didn't make many.......but it is an official variant with combat history that has different flight characteristics than any other variant that has a verifiable combat history.

I'm not lobbying for it in game but it does seem to have more than a few combat history references .

You know what else has different flight characteristics?

The Ki-43 does.  So does the G.55.  As does the MiG-3.  And the LaGG-3.  Also the Yak-1 and Yak-7 and Yak-3.  The C.200 is on the list. So is the Ki-44.  Ki-45 too. Add the J2M to the list.  Oh, the Ki-102 as well.

I think we should make the PBY available on aircraft carriers and it should be scaled in a manner that lets the parasol wing clear the island.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

I'd love a 109 CV enabled, but the T2's were converted, without their CV equiptment, to fight from land bases.

Essentially T2s became E7s
