href="/wiki/German_language" title="German language">German</a>, "People's Fighter") is a German single-engine, jet-powered <a href="/wiki/Fighter_aircraft" title="Fighter aircraft">fighter aircraft</a> fielded by the <a href="/wiki/Luftwaffe" title="Luftwaffe">Luftwaffe</a> late in <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>. Developed under the <a href="/wiki/Emergency_Fighter_Program" title="Emergency Fighter Program">Emergency Fighter Program</a>, it was designed and built quickly and made primarily of wood as metals were in very short supply and prioritised for other aircraft. <i>Volksjäger</i> was the <a href="/wiki/Reich_Air_Ministry" class="mw-redirect" title="Reich Air Ministry">Reich Air Ministry</a>'s official name for the government design program competition won by the He 162 design. Other names given to the plane include <i>Salamander</i>, which was the codename of its wing-construction program, and <i><b>Spatz</b></i> ("Sparrow"), which was the name given to the plane by the <a href="/wiki/Heinkel" title="Heinkel">Heinkel</a> aviation firm.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The aircraft was notable for its small size. <sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>a<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It had a distinctive top-mounted engine which, combined with the aircraft's low <a href="/wiki/Landing_gear" title="Landing gear">landing gear</a>, allowed the engine to be easily accessed for maintenance. This made <a href="/wiki/Parachuting" title="Parachuting">bailing out</a> of the aircraft without hitting the engine difficult, and the He 162 was the first single-engine aircraft provided with an <a href="/wiki/Ejection_seat" title="Ejection seat">ejection seat</a> in an operational setting. The small size left little room for fuel, which combined with the inefficient engine resulted in very low endurance - in the order of 20 minutes - and it only had room for two <a href="/wiki/Autocannon" title="Autocannon">autocannon</a>, making it relatively underarmed for the era. </p><p>A series of fatal accidents during testing required a series of refinements that delayed the program. Although production lines were set up and deliveries began in early 1945, the impending defeat of Germany by that time made the effort pointless. Of nearly 1,000 aircraft on the assembly lines, only about 120 were delivered to the airfields and most of those never flew, usually due to shortages of parts, fuel, and pilots. Small numbers were used in development squadrons and these ultimately saw combat in a few cases during April 1945, yet the He 162 also proved to be quite dangerous to its own pilots as its tiny fuel load led to a number of aircraft crashing off field, while additional losses were attributed to structural failure. </p><p>Production was still running when the <a href="/wiki/German_Instrument_of_Surrender" title="German Instrument of Surrender">war ended in May 1945</a>. Numerous aircraft were captured by the Allied forces along with ample supplies of parts from the production lines. <a href="/wiki/Eric_Brown_(pilot)" title="Eric Brown (pilot)">Eric Brown</a> flew one just after the war and considered it a first-rate aircraft with few vices. Several He 162s have been preserved in museum collections around the world. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Development">Development</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Heinkel_He_162_Volksj%C3%A4ger&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Development"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="State_of_the_Luftwaffe_fighter_arm">State of the Luftwaffe fighter arm</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Heinkel_He_162_Volksj%C3%A4ger&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: State of the Luftwaffe fighter arm"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Through 1943, the U.S. <a href="/wiki/Eighth_Air_Force" title="Eighth Air Force">Eighth Air Force</a> (8AF) and German <i>Luftwaffe</i> entered a period of rapid evolution as both forces attempted to gain an advantage. Having lost too many fighters to the bombers' defensive guns, the Germans invested in a series of heavy weapons that allowed them to attack from outside the American machine guns' effective range. The addition of the 30mm calibre <a href="/wiki/MK_108_cannon" title="MK 108 cannon">MK 108</a>, and even heavier <i>Bordkanone</i> autoloading weapons in <a href="/wiki/BK_37" class="mw-redirect" title="BK 37">37mm</a> and <a href="/wiki/BK_5_cannon" class="mw-redirect" title="BK 5 cannon">50mm</a> calibres on their <i>Zerstörer</i> heavy fighters, and the adoption in spring 1943 of the <i><a href="/wiki/Werfer-Granate_21" title="Werfer-Granate 21">Werfer-Granate 21</a></i> unguided rockets, gave the German single and twin-engined defensive fighters a degree of firepower never seen previously by Allied fliers. Meanwhile, single-engine aircraft like <a href="/wiki/Focke-Wulf_Fw_190_operational_history#The_Sturmböcke" title="Focke-Wulf Fw 190 operational history">specially equipped Fw 190As</a> added armor to protect their pilots from Allied bombers' defensive fire, allowing them to approach to distances where their heavy weapons could be used with some chance of hitting the bombers. All of this added greatly to the weight being carried by both the single and twin-engine fighters, seriously affecting their performance.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEWeal199678_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWeal199678-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEForsyth200958–59_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEForsyth200958–59-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In early 1944, the 8AF re-opened its bombing campaign with the <a href="/wiki/Big_Week" title="Big Week">Big Week</a> offensive in conjunction with the RAF, to force a decisive battle with Luftwaffe by attacking German aircraft production and so achieve Allied air superiority over Europe. The bombers returned to the skies with the long-range <a href="/wiki/P-51_Mustang" class="mw-redirect" title="P-51 Mustang">North American P-51 Mustang</a> escort fighters progressively replacing <a href="/wiki/Republic_P-47_Thunderbolt" title="Republic P-47 Thunderbolt">Republic P-47 Thunderbolts</a> and <a href="/wiki/Lockheed_P-38_Lightning" title="Lockheed P-38 Lightning">Lockheed P-38 Lightnings</a>. Unencumbered with the heavy weapons needed to down a bomber, the Mustangs (and longer-ranged versions of other aircraft) were able to fend off the <i>Luftwaffe</i> with relative ease. The <i>Luftwaffe</i> responded by changing tactics, forming in front of the bombers and making a single pass through the formations, giving the defense little time to react. Major General <a href="/wiki/Jimmy_Doolittle" title="Jimmy Doolittle">Jimmy Doolittle</a>, commander of 8AF, had changed policy in January 1944; rather than forcing escorts to stay with the bomber formations, they were free to fly ahead of the bomber formations and roam freely over Germany to hit the Luftwaffe's defensive fighters wherever they could be found.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>This change in tactics resulted in a sudden increase in the rate of irreplaceable losses to the Luftwaffe day fighter force, as their heavily laden aircraft were "bounced" long before reaching the bombers.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEHess199477–78_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHess199477–78-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Within weeks, many of their aces were dead, along with hundreds of other pilots, and the training program could not replace their casualties quickly enough. The Luftwaffe were able to put up little fight during the summer of 1944, allowing the <a href="/wiki/Normandy_landings" title="Normandy landings">Allied landings in France</a> to go almost unopposed from the air.

This ungainly combination would take off on a sprung trolley fitted with tandem wheels on each side for the "main gear" equivalent, derived from that used on the first eight Arado Ar 234 prototypes, with all three jets running. Immediately after take-off, the trolley would be jettisoned, and the <i>Mistel</i> would then fly to within strike range of the designated target. Upon reaching this point, the bomb would be aimed squarely at the target and then released, with the jet turning back for home.
