Messerschmitt Me 108 / Bf 108 fighter
Design
Note: Though I don't think it was intentionally designed as a fighter (I don't have a lot of information on this plane), I placed in the fighter category for convenience.
The Messerschmitt Bf 108 was designed by Willy Messerschmitt in 1933.1
The design and techniques for construction were later used for the Messerschmitt Bf 109.1
