Messerschmitt Me 334

Military Aircraft

The Messerschmitt Me 334 was a proposed German piston-engined fighter designed by Alexander Lippisch, of which no examples were built. Lippisch, noted for tailless designs, first planned a tailless fighter powered by a Heinkel turbojet, then had to redesign it around a single Daimler-Benz DB 605 inverted V-12 piston engine mounted in the nose, because reliable turbojets were slow to develop. The specification gives that DB 605 engine, which produced 1,085 kW (1,455 hp), and a gross mass of 3,000 kg.
