The Germans saw great potential for the jet engine airplanes constructed by Hans Joachim Pabst von Ohain in 1936. The Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe of Nazi Germany became the first operational jet-powered fighter aircraft in 1944. Although design work started before World War II, there were engine problems and interference that kept it from becoming functional for many years.
