Heinkel He 162

6,195 SarcasticCommander  7.2 years ago

A fairly detailed and stable He 162. HISTORY: With it's first flight in December of 1944, and it's retirement only a year later, it first saw combat in April of 1945. It was retired the same year. Enjoy! (I mean no offence with the tail insignia. It's to there to be historically accurate.)

    Also, did you know that only one kill was ever scored in combat with the He-162? It was by (I think) a Hitler youth pilot three days before Germany lost the war.
