Designed by the Messerschmitt company, it was the first rocket-powered aircraft deployed in combat, capable of reaching speeds over 600 mph. The aircraft piloted by Captain Eric 'Winkle' Brown of VF 241 was one of the most renowned examples, known for its high speed and maneuverability, primarily used for intercepting Allied bombers. Despite its advanced capabilities, the Me 163B had limitations, including a short range and challenging flight and landing characteristics. Consequently, it was not produced in large numbers and was phased out by the end of the war. This model captures the essence of the Me 163B's historical significance and is a fantastic representation of this pioneering aircraft.
