Historical Information and Usage of the Dornier Do 335 Pfeil B

The Dornier Do 335 Pfeil (codename: Pfeil – "Arrow") was a German heavy fighter and fighter-bomber aircraft that entered service at the end of World War II. It was characterized by its innovative tandem twin-engine design and unusual push-pull propeller arrangement. The Do 335 Pfeil B model was a development of the basic version, adapted for combat and reconnaissance missions. The aircraft was used by the Luftwaffe towards the end of the war (1944-1945). Despite its excellent technical performance, such as a maximum speed exceeding 750 km/h, due to its late debut it did not significantly impact the course of hostilities. However, the aircraft continues to impress designers and modelers to this day because of its unique appearance and engineering solutions.
