naw, I'm too lazy to look in-depth, and wouldn't ask anyone do to my footwork for me.

links like that are FEW and FAR between from what I have seen.



oh yeah, on topic, the 109T has been known in the community a looong time, and been asked for repeatedly, but since there never was a German CV, well, no go in-game :(

It would really be a great addition, and the luftweenies like me would fly it off a CV a ton

Yea. your right JB73.

Edit: Was it a Emil with the hook gear? or was it a special made 109?

Looks to be a modified 109E.
"It was basically a Bf 109E-1 with a larger wing, an attachment point for catapult points underneath the fuselage, and an arrester hook underneath the aft fuselage. A breakpoint was incorporated in the wing spar outboard of the gun bays to permit manual folding of the wings. However, the wing folding process was complicated by the need to detach the flaps prior to folding. The landing gear still retracted outwards, but the undercarriage legs were made stronger in order to accommodate the faster sink rates involved in carrier landings. Armament was to consist of two fuselage-mounted 7.9-mm MG 17 machine guns and either two MG-17 machine guns or two 20-mm MG-FF cannon in the wings. The engine was the Daimler Benz DB 601A."
-from the link

It does mention a de-navalized version the was used on short strips.
"Stripped of naval equipment and fitted with a rack for a 66 Imp gal drop tank, 4 110-lb bombs, or a single 551-lb bomb, the planes were redesignated Bf 109T-2. It was concluded that the Bf 109T-2 would be ideal for operation from small, exposed airstrips such as those from which the Jagdflieger were forced to operate in Norway. Several units operated with the Bf 109T-2 in Norway. However, it never operated in its intended shipboard role."

The T-2 version would be an interesting add, but not very high on my priority list now.

I'll delete it to not spread inaccuracies, but I am curious as to what is so off?

i if you go to one of the web site, you can get a better image.  I had no ideal that the germans had a CV.  
AH should consider doing a 109 E and T.  And maybe that 109 Z.  Heck they might as well add the p-82, twin mustan.

The Germans Did NOT have a CV, it was never finished. We have an 109E, and the P-82 was a Korean war fighter, not WW2.

IMO, we have enough 109's for now, theres other gaping holes that need filling first.
