Messerschmitt AG was a German
aircraft manufacturing corporation (AG) named after its chief
designer Willy Messerschmitt and known primarily for its World
War II fighter aircraft, in particular the Bf 109 and Me 262.
The company survived in the post-war era, undergoing a number
of mergers and changing its name from Messerschmitt to Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm
before being bought by Deutsche Aerospace (DASA, now part of
Airbus) in 1989. |
