The DFS 228 was a rocket-powered, high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft designed by the Deutsche Forschungsanstalt fur Segelflug during World War II. By the end of the war, the aircraft had only flown in the form of two unpowered prototypes.The initial design of the DFS 228 was undertaken before the outbreak of war as a research aircraft, the DFS 54, aimed at developing a high-altitude escape system for sailplanes. The project was suspended by the commencement of hostilities, but was revived in 1940 when the Reichsluftfahrtministerium RLM - "Reich Aviation Ministry delivered the DFS with a requirement for a rocket-powered reconnaissance aircraft. The advantages of a sailplane for reconnaissance included its silence, its low speed relative to the ground allowing for higher-quality photography, and its potential ability to loiter above an area of interest. The project gave the DFS the opportunity to investigate two additional areas that it was interested in - the effects of wing sweep on sailplane design, and supersonic flight.
