Historical information:

The Messerschmitt Me 163B Komet was a German rocket aircraft designed for intercepting enemy bombers, used during World War II. It was the only rocket-powered interceptor fighter in aviation history to be introduced into service, operated by the Luftwaffe from 1944–1945. Renowned for its incredible performance and speed (over 950 km/h), its combat effectiveness was, however, limited by the specifics of its propulsion and the high operational risk. It took part in the defense of the Third Reich against Allied bombing raids.
