all 109s in game has the same armourequipment......so, their general weight is the same.
the E-1 had some few kilos less because of the armament.
Production , maintenance and pilotweight differences simle made this small difference to zero in performance.
What engine they had? DB 601A-1 or the little bit more powerfull DB601Aa, well, both is possible for all variants.


the decissions 1C made in the past about fightervariants are questionable anyway.

Spit I and Hurri I both with Rotol CSP and 100 octan fuel.
Bf109E-1& -4 (plus their -/Bs), both with Db601Aa
would have be my release set.......

later added with Spitfire II, Hurricane II and Bf109E-4/N


british two speed propeller fighters, 109E-3 , were total nonsense decissions IMHO!
