The Komet was designed as a rocket-powered point-defense interceptor, able to rapidly climb to altitude in order to shoot down incoming enemy bombers that were crushing Germany. After an on-again off-again development schedule, the first combat flight of an Me-163 occurred on May of 1944.

Pilots reported the Komet to be "Superb! No other word can express the pleasurable sensation as I shot ever upwards into the sky" and "one of the most maneuverable airplanes ever built." – Now Leading Edge Gliders brings this same exciting performance to your local slope!
