The German Luftwaffe was the most modern air force of its time, led by its Messerschmitt 109. The British Spitfire was developed in time for the Battle of Britain. U.S. entry into the war quickly brought a range of aircraft, including the P-38 Lightening, a flying machine that pushed the technology of the time, introducing new problems as well as new capabilities.
