The Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet
The plane was designed to be a rocket-powered interceptor made to shoot down enemy planes. It could accelerate from 0-100 mph faster than any of its competitor’s planes. Sadly, the plane has a small fuel tank, which is why it could only fly for about 3 minutes until it had to land for a refill. The fuel tank was a massive problem; it leaked a lot, which resulted in deaths.
