The DFS 194 was a rocket-powered aircraft designed by Alexander Lippisch at the Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug (DFS - German Institute for Sailplane Flight).
This aircraft was designated DFS 194 and the development was conducted
at the Messerschmitt works in Augsburg. The construction of the
world’s first rocket powered, combat-ready, airplane had begun.1
The design was based on earlier work on the DFS 194 in 1938.2 It was
done by the German Research Institute for Sailplanes.2 A Walter HWK
R.I motor (600 lb / 2.7kN) was added.2
and the partially completed DFS 194 to the Messerschmitt works at
Augsburg.
The delays caused by this move allowed the engine development to
"catch up".3
headed a project that produced the DFS 194 rocket test aircraft, which
became the predecessor of Me 163.4
and the partially completed DFS 194 to the Messerschmitt works at
Augsburg.5
adding to the original DFS 194, followed by eight pre-production
examples designated Me 163 A-0.6
Made by Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug.
It is the successor of the DFS 40 ,
DFS 194 is the predecessor of the Messerschmitt Me 163.
Next was completed DFS 194 which was a
tail-less glider and a predecessor of Me 163.7

The DFS 194 was a rocket-powered aircraft designed by Alexander
Lippisch at the Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug (DFS -
"German Institute for Sailplane Flight").9
The DFS 194 was based on another Lippisch Delta series of tail-less
designs.10
DFS 194 (V1), followed by eight pre-production examples designated as
"Me 163 A-0".
During testing, the jettisonable main landing gear arrangement was a
serious problem.11
