This is a Messerschmitt Me 262—the world's first mass-produced jet aircraft—on display at the Deutsches Museum.
This particular exhibit features an exposed jet engine beneath the wing and bears a camouflage paint scheme.
The aircraft has a unique history: on April 25, 1945, the pilot, Guido Mutke, used it to defect, flying to Dübendorf Airfield in Switzerland.

The Me 262 was more than 100 km/h faster than propeller-driven aircraft. However, only about 1,400 Me 262s were built by 1945 in primitive mountain galleries, tunnels, and forest factories.
Thousands of forced laborers and concentration camp prisoners died during production. Due to technical issues and shortages of pilots and fuel, only a few Me 262s were able to take off.
