This volume is probably the most comprehensive and up-to-date work on this legendary rocket aircraft. The Me 163 first flew in 1941 and was the first aircraft in the world to exceed the 1000 km/h mark. The rocket plane was developed to combat enemy bomber formations. The knowledge gained during its construction and use had a decisive influence on many developments of later years.
Hundreds of contemporary photos and specially prepared graphics make this book the absolute and undisputed standard work on the Messerschmitt Me 163, which has never been described in such detail.
