Formed in August 1944, Jagdgeschwader 7 was equipped with the
revolutionary Me 262 jet fighter, which was faster than any
aircraft in existence at the time. This unit experienced all of the
highs and lows associated with the introduction of such a radically
new design. Thus the history of JG 7 is also the story of the Me
262, and inspired design which broke new ground in many areas of
technology, and for which there was simply not enough time for
thorough development. The pilots of JG 7 frequently had to make do
with improvisation and faced a numerically far superior enemy in an
aircraft which was technically immature. Manfred Boehme has
collected many documentary sources including first hand accounts,
technical records and photo archives many of the 150 photos are
published here for the first time.
