HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Dornier Do 335 "Pfeil" was a German heavy fighter and ground-attack aircraft used during World War II. It was known for its high speed and maneuverability, and was considered one of the most advanced aircraft of the war. The aircraft was equipped with two engines, one mounted in the nose and the other in the tail, which allowed it to reach speeds of up to 646 km/h (401 mph).
The Do 335 "Pfeil" saw limited service during the war, with only around 50 being built before the end of the war. It was primarily used as a high-speed reconnaissance aircraft, but was also used for ground attack and as a heavy fighter.
The example of Dornier Do 335 "Pfeil" that is on display at the Udvar Hazy Centre Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC is a captured example that was brought to the United States after the war. It was captured by the US Army in 1945 and was subsequently brought to the United States for testing and evaluation.

The Dornier Do 335 Pfeil ("Arrow") was a Nazi Germany World War II heavy fighter built by the Dornier company. The two-seater trainer version was called Ameisenbar ("anteater"). The Pfeil's performance was much better than other twin-engine designs due to its unique push-pull configuration and the lower aerodynamic drag of the in-line alignment of the two engines. It was Nazi Germany's fastest piston-engined aircraft of World War II. The Luftwaffe was desperate to get the design into operational use, but delays in engine deliveries meant that only a handful were delivered before the war ended.
