  Messerschmitt Me 328 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Messerschmitt Me 328 was originally designed as a parasite fighter to protect Luftwaffe bomber formations during World War II.
The tiny fighter was to have been propelled by pulsejets, but the unsuitability of these engines doomed the Me 328 from the start.
In late 1943, gliding tests were undertaken, with the Me 328 carried aloft by a Dornier Do 217E or launched from a catapult on the ground.

 Messerschmitt Bf-109 - The Air Combat Wiki
Willy Messerschmitt's masterpiece, the Bf-109, was the prototypical modern fighter at the beginning of the war and was still going strong at war's end six years later.
The compression ratio was raised to 7.3 on the port side and 7.5:1 on the starboard side cylinders and the maximum rpm was raised to 2800.
The fuselages with their DB 601E engines were unchanged apart from the addition of a lower keel member to support the main landing gear legs, which were moved to the centerline and designed to extend to a more vertical configuration.

 Messerschmitt Me P.1095 Luft '46 entry
In early 1943, the Messerschmitt design bureau were working on an idea for a single engined, lightweight jet fighter known as the P.1092 series.
One was to use the entire Me 262 tail unit (horizontal tail and fin/rudder) along with a wooden wing, the other used the entire Me 328 tail unit (horizontal tail and fin/rudder) along with a slightly smaller all metal wing.
As with many Messerschmitt designs, the radio and other equipment was to be placed aft of the rear fuel tanks ahead of the tail.

 Me 328
The Messerschmitt Me 328 was originally designed as a parasite fighter to protect Luftwaffe bomber format- ions during World War II.
The aircraft was designed as Messerschmitt project P.1073 in 1941 and handed over to the Deutsche For- schungsanstalt für Segelflug (DFS German Research Institute for Sailplane Flight) for development.
The extreme vibration created by the pulsejets proved highly detrimental to the Me- 328's light wooden airframe, and two prototypes were ruined by this alone.

The Me 328 was the result of a project to produce a cheap, small, single-flight escort fighter plane.
The first Me 328 V1 glider was mounted on the top of a Do 217E bomber with a specially designed ramp.
The Me 328 V2 was similar to the V1 but featured significantly shortened wings for use as a low-level fighter.

Willy Messerschmitt was born in 1889, built and flew sailplanes and flew in air races.
It could be towed by semi-rigid pole and possibly retrieved in flight by He 177s or Me 264s, then released in the target area to fend off enemy fighters with the pilot bailing out or, if possible, regaining friendly territory and landing on its skid.
Willy Messerschmitt was a believer in the Nazi cause and refused to work with any U.S. manufacturer after the war.

The Daimler Benz 605B 12-cylinder engine was buried in the fuselage behind the cockpit, and drove a three-bladed, Me P 6 reversible-pitch propeller by an extension shaft which passed beneath the cockpit (similar to the US Bell P-39).
Other Me 309 components were to be used, such as the tricycle landing gear, and the vertical tail assembly was similar to the one used for the Me 309 V1.
Although no firm evidence exists, it is possible that the Me 309/509 information was licensed to the Japanese military, as were a number of other German designs (Bf 109, He 100, Me 163, Me 410, among others).

 LemaireSoft's Messerschmitt AG   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
In 1938, it narrowly missed bankruptcy because of an argument with the Lufthansa, because of which the CEO, Ehrard Milch, kept a lasting grudge against Messerschmitt.
The Bayerische Flugzeugwerke had temporarily taken the name "Messerschmitt" in 1933, but that new name became definitive only in July of 1938.
Messerschmitt did not disappear with the German defeat, since today's largest aircraft conglomerate in Germany still bears his name (the "M" of MBB sands for "Messerschmitt").

 PM 1/72 Messerschmitt Me-328v1/v2
The design of the Messerschmitt P.1073 parasite fighter program started in 1941, the basic aircraft to be launched from a bomber, defend the bomber formation and then glide back home.
Tests were done with pulsejets, as used to power the V-1, fitted to the rear of the fuselage of the Me 328A prototype.
The wooden airframe could not cope with the noise and vibration from the Argus engines, and two aircraft were lost in flight because of airframe failure.

The Me 210 was the result of a call to Messerschmitt to create a successor to the popular and effective Bf 110 long range fighter and bomber destroyer.
  Plans for the Me 210 to replace the Bf 110 were all but abandoned by late 1941 when the Me 210 was still pronounced to be totally unsuitable for operational units.
The Me 410, was a solid firing platform, with adequate handling qualities.

 [2.0] The V-1 Flying Bomb
Some of the V-1s were fitted with a radio transmitter and a trailing antenna wire so that their flight could be monitored.
In some cases, the bombs were "shadowed" by fast aircraft like the Messerschmitt 410 twin-engine fighter to observe their flight.
A few of the bombs were also fitted with a cage to accommodate 23 one-kilogram incendiary bombs, or a cardboard tube full of propaganda leaflets that was ejected before the V-1 entered its terminal dive.

 Messerschmitt Me 328 - Wikipedia
Die Messerschmitt Me 328 war ein von der Messerschmitt AG und der Deutschen Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug projektiertes einsitziges Jagdflugzeug ohne eigenen Antrieb, der im Mistelschlepp an den feindlichen Bomberverband herangeführt werden und dann im Gleitflug seine Angriffe durchführen sollte.
Das Flugzeug erhielt die Bezeichnung Me 328 A. Mit der konstruktiven Ausarbeitung dieses Jagd-Gleiters wurde die Segelflugzeugbau Jacob Schweyer beauftragt.
Nachdem in der V1 mit Erfolg VerpuffungsstrahltriebwerkPulso-Schubrohre eingebaut worden waren, sollten diese auch in der Me 328 eingebaut werden.

Dieses Flugzeug erhielt die Bezeichnung Me 328 A. Die durch zwei Argus As 014 Staustrahltriebwerke angetriebene Variante erhielt die Bezeichnung Me 328 B. Die angestrebte Produktion wurde durch die starken Vibrationen, die die Argus-Rohre hervorgerufen haben, wieder storniert.

In order to get sufficient air through the Argus Pulsejet, the V-1 had to be accelerated up a ramp by means of a steam catapult, powered by T-Stoff (Hydrogen Peroxide) and Z-Stoff (Calcium or Sodium aqueous solution used as a catalyst for the Hydrogen Peroxide).
I can't take credit for this pulsejet, it's the pulsejet of Sally, a fellow crazy in MARS, the rocketry group that I am rather heavily involved in.
In this type of propulsion system, the rocket motor provides the main propulsive force at low velocities, with air being drawn into the duct and compressed, and heated by the rocket exhaust.

 rec.aviation.military Frequently Asked Questions (part 3 of 5)
The Me 262 was much faster and more heavily armed than the contemporary Gloster Meteor, and could have had a much greater effect on the war than it actually did if it had been produced in larger numbers in time.
The Me 262 was designed as a versatile fighter-bomber from the start; delays were mainly caused by the difficulty of manufacturing the engines in large enough quantities in the face of materials shortages caused by Allied bombing (the service life of an engine was only about 20 hours!).
* Messerschmitt Me 328: This was a short-lived design, powered by two 2.94 kN Argus As 014 pulse-jets and intended to be a cheap and quickly-built ground attack aircraft, with a secondary role as a day fighter.

It was selected for production in January 1945 over the Messerschmitt P-1101; it is not known how far it had progressed by the end of the war, but it is unlikely that a prototype was assembled, much less flew.
Plans existed for a greatly improved version, the Me 263 (also known as the Junkers Ju 248; Junkers did much of the development work), with a new engine (16.67 kN Walter HWK 109-509C-4, with separate boost and cruise chambers, giving a longer (30+ min?) endurance), more fuel, and a real landing gear.
There was one Me 263 built and flown, but it was only flown as a glider; the engine was not ignited in flight.
