Dive into the exhilarating history of the Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet, the only rocket-powered fighter aircraft to have ever been operational. With its debut in 1944, this pioneering aircraft shattered speed records, reaching an astonishing 700 km/h (435 mph), making it one of the fastest aircraft of World War II. Designed by Alexander Lippisch, its revolutionary design and rocket engine set it apart from any other combat aircraft of its time. Serving exclusively with the Luftwaffe, the Me 163 was a formidable interceptor that struck fear into the hearts of Allied bomber crews. Despite its limited operational impact, the Komet remains a symbol of ingenuity and the extreme lengths to which wartime engineering reached. Its legacy is marked by its unique blend of speed, power, and innovation, making it a fascinating subject for aviation enthusiasts and historians alike.
