Album info

The Messerschmitt Me P.1103 was designed in 1944 (together with the FW "Volksjäger", Ju EF 126 & 127 and Bacham Ba 349 "Natter") as a short-range rocket fighter. The construction of the Me P.1103 was simple, built mostly of wood. The wings were shoulder mounted and mated to the rear of the canopy. The Me P.1103 was to be towed into the air by either a Bf 109G or Me 262, where it would then fire its single RI 202 Walter liquid-fuel rocket engine. The pilot flew seated, and the armament consisted of a single 30mm MK 108 cannon mounted under the pilot. After the attack, the Me P.1103 landed on a retractable skid. The design and production work was handed over to the factory of Ing. J. Mráz, Flugzeufabrik Chotzen (Orličan n. p.) At the end of the war, the factory had several fuselages and wings in progress. It was decided to build two test machines. These machines were sent to the Military Aviation Institute for testing. A modified Avia CS-92 was used for towing, which also had a special paint job and was used to tow the sleeve on which the S-162 Vyškov Sparrow was to be shot at the air day. The flight characteristics were not bad, but the Air Force did not show interest in this type and in 1946 the aircraft was cancelled. The aircraft was painted on the lower surfaces with grey-blue RLM76 and on the upper surfaces with green RLM82. Czech markings and VTLU markings were in the prescribed places.
