The war plane, piloted by 21-year old Sandor Beregszaszi, was shot down 02 July 1944 in a battle with the U.S. forces in World War II. This is the only Messerschmitt Me-109 equipped with a Hungarian-made engine that has been recovered to date. The first dives to the wreckage, lying about 5 meters below surface, were carried out in 2020. EPA/SZILARD KOSZTICSAK HUNGARY OUT
