Hartmann got his 'wings' in 1941 and was assigned to the fighter wing Jagdgeschwader 52 in October 1942. JG 52 was stationed on the Eastern Front in the Soviet Union and was equipped with the Messerschmitt Bf-109G. The Me-109G was manufactured by Bayerische Flugzeugwerke, and Messerschmitt. Its primary users are Luftwaffe, Hungarian Air Force, Italian Social Republic, and Romanian Air Force.

When the 1,475 hp Daimler-Benz DB 605 engine was available, a new Bf 109 series, the G-series, was developed. The early versions of the Bf 109G looked quite similar to the Bf 109 F-4, and at first carried the same armament. The G-series saw the appearance of the notorious bulges in the cowling (caused by the DB605 (additional cooling) and by replacing the 7.92 mm MG 17 with 13 mm MG 131 machine guns (G-5 onwards)) and on the wings (due to larger main gear wheels, G-4 onwards), leading to the Bf 109G's nickname "The Bulge" (German: "Die Beule"). The DB605 suffered several reliability problems during the first year of operation forcing Luftwaffe units to lower max power to about 1,310 hp (975 kW) until October 1943.
