With the Third Reich on the brink of defeat Hitler's instructions
to his designers were clear. He wanted a Volksjager - a People's
Fighter that was quick to produce and used minimal quantities of
strategic materials. Heinkel rose to the challenge with the He 162,
a fighter constructed of wood and metal that was designed, built
and flown in the staggeringly short time of ten weeks. Professional
pilots were in short supply, and so the Luftwaffe was ordered to
man the He 162 with hastily trained members of the Hitler Youth - a
flawed plan that fortunately never came to fruition. Detailed
aircraft profiles and never before seen photographs perfectly
complement the analysis of the revolutionary Heinkel He 162 as
author Robert Forsyth traces its entire history, from the early
design and production through to its limited combat experience.
