DFS 228 Reconnaissance Aircraft

The DFS 228 was a rocket-powered, high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft designed by the Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug (DFS – “German Institute for Sailplane Flight”) during World War II. By the end of the war, the aircraft had only flown in the form of two unpowered prototypes.
