Historical information

The Dornier Do 335 “Pfeil” (German for Arrow) was a German twin-engine heavy fighter in a tandem layout, designed during World War II by the Dornier company. The innovative configuration, with one engine at the front and another at the rear, provided both high maximum speed and exceptional maneuverability. The Do 335 was considered the fastest piston-engined fighter of the Luftwaffe, reaching speeds of over 760 km/h. It took part mainly in experimental and test operations at the end of the war, with only a small number of units delivered to Luftwaffe combat squadrons in 1945. The type was used exclusively by Germany in the final phase of World War II.
