History:
The Messerschmitt Me 109 TL (with "TL" being an abbreviation for Turbo-Lader Strahltriebwerk or turbocharger jet engine) was proposed on January 22, 1943 as a means to speed the develpoment and production of a jet fighter. At this time, only 3 prototypes of the Me 262 had been built. In order to cut down on design and production time, various components from existing aircraft was to be used. The fuselage from the Me 155B high-altitude fighter was to be used (with a new nose and tail section), the wing was from the Me 409 project and the undercarriage came from the Me 309. The armament was to be two MG 151/20 20mm cannon (120 rounds each) and two MK 103 30mm cannon, all in the nose. A later proposal included two MK 108 30mm cannon could be installed in the wing roots. The performance was estimated to be better than the Me 262 due to the Me 109 TL's narrower fuselage. Following intensive study, by March 1943 it was decided that so many modifications to the various components would be needed that no time would be gained over the Me 262 development, thus the project was abandoned.

Controls:
All normal flight controls. VTOL down for flaps.

Features:
100% to scale. Movable flaps. Custom landing gear,

Notes:
This one turned out alright. This is one that has been sitting in my hangar for quite a while. as such I feel that the quality is less than it should be. also due in part to my potato computer that doesn't want to cooperate.
