The miracle weapon that turned the tide of war, now in the Historical Collection. The Messerschmitt Me 262 is the first jet-powered fighter aircraft in combat! Manufactured by Germany, it entered service in 1944 as an interceptor. Bombing and reconnaissance versions were also produced. It was called the Sturmvogel by German pilots and was known as the Turbo by the Allies. Due to the aircraft’s late entry into service, it did not play a significant role during the war. Messerschmitt’s Me 262 scored 900 kills with the loss of 100 aircraft. This aircraft is inspired by a model on display at the Deutsches Museum in Munich. It was piloted by Hans Guido Mutke, who reached Switzerland in the last days of the war, where he was interned. Years later, the aircraft returned to Germany as a major museum exhibit.
