With the Third Reich on the brink of defeat Hitler's instructions to his designers were clear. He wanted a Volksj???ger - a People's Fighter that was quick to produce and used minimal quantities of strategic materials. Heinkel rose to the challenge with the He 162, a fighter constructed of wood and metal that was designed, built and flown in the staggeringly short time of ten weeks.
