[The wing of innovation that will leave a name in aviation history]
During World War II, the German Air Force's Me262 appeared as the world's first practical jet fighter. The Me262 was developed as an innovative high-speed fighter, and the delivery of the initial mass-produced A-0 began in April 1944. However, Hitler's order prioritised the production of the combat bomber A-2a, so the full-scale production of the long-awaited fighter A-1a began in November of the same year at the end of the Great War. The A-1a, which was deployed in air Defence warfare on the German mainland, became the biggest threat to Allied bombers with its heavy armament of four 30mm machine guns and air-to-air rockets and its high-speed performance.
