The Bf109G series, or "Gustav", was introduced in mid-1942; its initial variants (G-1 through G-4) differed only in minor details from the Bf 109F, most notably in being powered by themore powerful 1475 PS DB 605 engine. Odd numbered variants were built with a pressurised cockpit and GM-1 boost as high altitude fighters, while even numbered variants were non -pressurized air superiority fighters and fighter bombers. long-range photo-recon naissance variants also existed. The later G series (G-5 through G-14) was produced in a multitude of variants.
