This new volume in the Pilots and Planes series deals with the four most important jets the German put into operational service during WWII: the Messerschmitt Me 262, the first ever fighter used operationally; the Me 163 Komet, the war's only rocket plane, but with limited use; the Arado Ar 234 Blitz, the first ever jet bomber, designed during the last months of the conflict; and finally the Henschel Hs 132, which was both interceptor and dive bomber.
