On 26 April 1939, this a/c achieved a new world speed record of 755.14 km/h.
The designation Me 209 was given for propaganda purposes to cause confusion with the Messerschmitt Bf 109, the Luftwaffe's primary fighter throughout World War II. It was later reused for the actual proposed successor to the Bf.109.
