The Heinkel HE 280 holds the prestigious title of the world's first jet-powered fighter aircraft, marking a monumental leap in aviation technology during World War II. Developed by the German manufacturer Heinkel, this pioneering jet made its initial flight in 1941, showcasing the potential for jet propulsion in military aviation. Although it never entered mass production or saw combat, the HE 280 was a trailblazer that set the stage for future jet fighters. Equipped with twin Heinkel HeS 8 turbojet engines, it boasted impressive specifications for its time, including a maximum speed of 900 km/h. Despite its groundbreaking achievements, the HE 280 was overshadowed by the Messerschmitt Me 262, another German jet fighter. However, its legacy as the first of its kind remains undisputed, highlighting a significant moment in the evolution of aerial warfare.
