“My attention was drawn to an unusual picture: a small plane was sitting on top of a large plane. I was perplexed: how did one plane manage to land on another? I watched to see what would happen next. These two intertwined planes began to dive straight at us. Suddenly, the upper plane soared into the sky, and the lower, large one, went down in a corkscrew. I reached the ground, and then there was an explosion of such force that millions of multi-colored sparkles flashed before my eyes. A huge funnel formed, my house could have gone into it.” These are the impressions of one of the Soviet officers from the use of their “miracle weapon” by the Germans in March 1945. It so happened that there are practically no publications devoted to the operations of the Soviet, Allied and German air forces in the spring of 1945. Sometimes one gets the impression that after the Battle of Kursk and the “Stalinist strikes” of 1944, German aviation no longer existed and there is simply nothing to describe there. Meanwhile, some air battles in the last months of the war were not inferior in scale to the same Kursk Bulge. And in terms of the amount of new equipment and unusual tactical techniques, they even surpassed past battles. It was in the spring of 1945, trying to delay their collapse, that the Nazi leadership threw into battle the entire arsenal of the latest weapons: jet aircraft, guided bombs, air-to-air missiles, etc. This work collects and systematizes the available information about the most significant operations of the Nazi aviation in the last stage of the war, starting from March 1, 1945. Particular attention is paid to the Mistel strike complexes.
