In the late 1930s, just before the outbreak of World War II, the Swiss Air Force purchased Messerschmitt Bf109 E-3s from Germany in order to strengthen its forces.
Its mission was to warn aircraft of airspace violations and to order forced landings. If the aircraft resisted, they also attacked them. In the latter half of the war, an increasing number of Allied bombers were on their way to bomb cities in southern Germany when they made a wrong turn and entered the airspace, or were hit or malfunctioned and headed for Swiss territory. In one case, a Bf109 E-3 of the Swiss Air Force was mistakenly identified as a German aircraft and shot down.
As a result, from September 1944 onwards, red and white stripes were applied to the wings and fuselage to identify the aircraft. The aircraft was decommissioned in December 1949, after the end of World War II. It continued to protect the skies of neutral Switzerland until it was replaced by the De Havilland DH.100 Vampire, a British-made jet fighter.(Taken from a plastic model of Tamiya Inc.)
