It was the world's first operational <a href="/wiki/Turbojet" title="Turbojet">turbojet</a>-powered bomber, seeing service during the final years of the <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">Second World War</a>. </p><p>Development of the Ar 234 can be traced back to the latter half of 1940 and the request to <a href="/wiki/Invitation_to_tender" title="Invitation to tender">tender</a> from the <a href="/wiki/Ministry_of_Aviation_(Nazi_Germany)" title="Ministry of Aviation (Nazi Germany)">Ministry of Aviation</a> to produce a jet-powered high-speed reconnaissance aircraft. Arado was the only respondent with their <i>E.370</i> design. While its range was beneath that of the Ministry's specification, an initial order for two <a href="/wiki/Prototype" title="Prototype">prototypes</a> was promptly issued to the company, designated <i>Ar 234</i>. While both of the prototypes had been mostly completed prior to the end of 1941, the <a href="/wiki/Junkers_Jumo_004" title="Junkers Jumo 004">Junkers Jumo 004</a> turbojet engines were not available prior to February 1943. Due to engine unreliability, the <a href="/wiki/Maiden_flight" title="Maiden flight">maiden flight</a> of the Ar 234 V1 was delayed until 30 July 1943. In addition to the original reconnaissance-orientated <i>Ar 234A</i>, the fast bomber <i>Ar 234B</i> model was developed in response to a request by the Ministry of Aviation. Due to a lack of internal space in the relatively slender fuselage, bombloads of up to 1,500 kg (3,300 lb) had to be carried on external racks rather than in internal <a href="/wiki/Bomb_bay" title="Bomb bay">bomb bays</a>. </p><p>The Ar 234 was produced only in small numbers, despite plans for production of 500 per month by late 1945. This was partly due to a lack of available jet engines and other critical materials, for which the aircraft had to compete with other types, such as the <a href="/wiki/Messerschmitt_Me_262" title="Messerschmitt Me 262">Messerschmitt Me 262</a>. Several models were proposed, with alternative engines, cockpit improvements, and adaptations for other roles, including as a <a href="/wiki/Night_fighter" title="Night fighter">night fighter</a>. In late 1944, <a href="/wiki/Aerial_reconnaissance" title="Aerial reconnaissance">aerial reconnaissance</a> missions over enemy territory commenced. The Ar 234 was almost entirely used to perform such reconnaissance missions and it was in this capacity that it became the last <a href="/wiki/Luftwaffe" title="Luftwaffe">Luftwaffe</a> aircraft to overfly the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a> during the war, in April 1945.<sup id="cite_ref-Boyne_1994,_p.325_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Boyne_1994,_p.325-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In its capacity as a bomber, the most prominent use of the Ar 234 was the repeated attempts to destroy the <a href="/wiki/Ludendorff_Bridge" title="Ludendorff Bridge">Ludendorff Bridge</a> at <a href="/wiki/Remagen" title="Remagen">Remagen</a> between 7 and 17 March 1945.

While the range was short of the Ministry's specification, it decided to order a pair of <a href="/wiki/Prototype" title="Prototype">prototypes</a>, which were designated as the <i>Ar 234</i>.
