In July 1944 Germany introduced the Messerschmitt Me 262, the first jet aircraft in combat. Allied pilots were astonished by its speed-100mph faster than the best Allied fighters-and quick to find its weakness-it was vulnerable at take-off and particularly at landing. So the Luftwaffe arranged for conventional fighters to cover the jets over their air bases, because during 1945 German skies were blanketed by American, British, and Soviet aircraft.
Adolf Galland was dismissed from his position as General of Fighters because Germany was overwhelmed by Allied air attacks and Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring needed a scapegoat. In February 1945, Göring authorized Galland to form a Jagdverband (Special Fighter Squadron) of experienced pilots to fly the Me 262.
