The Heinkel He-162 Salamander is a German jet fighter, single-seat and single-engine, from the end of World War II. The prototype's first flight took place on December 6, 1944. The He-162 proved to be a winner in the so-called People's Fighter (German: Volksjäger), which was intended to protect German skies from heavy Allied bomber attacks. The aircraft had an unusual layout with the engine (MW 003E-1 or E-2) positioned high on the fuselage, short trapezoidal wings, and a very aerodynamic silhouette.
