History: Designed to continue the ill-fated Me-109 K series, the Me-109 K-20H was designed specifically for the purpose of intercepting American B-17 bomber formations. It sat a single pilot just aft of the wing assembly and featured a slightly smaller canopy compared to other Me-109 models in order to reduce the amount of drag. It incorporated several features from other aircraft as well. The nose section was based off of both the Fw-190 series and off of the proposed Me-209 V-1. The tail was also based off of the Me-209 V-1. In early 1945, the exact dates are unknown, a single unmarked aircraft took off and attempted to intercept a bomber formation that would fly over the airfield on their way to Berlin. A pair of P-51D Mustangs, the lead one flown by (fictional) Lt. Fredrich Heineken, saw the German fighter and engaged. The dogfight, according to the Lt., lasted about twenty minutes. The German aircraft's engine eventually caught fire and the pilot bailed out. The aircraft dove into a lake and was never found.

@DestinyAviation coolio
I agree. Like I said, this is based off of the Me-209 V-1/5 @NativeChief1492
@DestinyAviation The engine cowling looks like FW-190 The rest Me-109-ish. Pretty cool
Really? I was trying to not go for that. Oh well! I did base this off of the Me-209 V-1/5 @JettStorm
Looks more like a Fw-190D
