Historical Description

The Dornier Do 335 was the most technologically advanced twin-engine combat aircraft produced by Germany at the end of World War II. It was distinguished by its unique "push-pull" configuration with two inline engines – one driving a propeller at the front, the other at the rear of the fuselage. The B-6 version was an advanced night interceptor equipped with radar and dedicated equipment for nocturnal operations. These aircraft were intended to counter Allied bombers; however, limited production and the end of the war prevented their widespread combat use. One example of the Do 335 can be seen today at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in the USA.
