Me P.1101 First Design:
The July 24, 1944 design by Hans Hornung of a single-seat jet fighter. It was powered by one Heinkel He S 011 turbojet. This was the shortest of all versions with a blunt nose and a v-tail. It had a wingspan of 7.15 m and a length of 6.85 m. The armament was two MK 108 cannons.[2]
Me P.1101 Second Design:
August 30, 1944 sleeker design. Also a v-tailed single-seat jet fighter with a more pointed nose and wings swept back at 40 degrees. It had a wingspan of 8.16 m and a length of 9.37 m.
Me P.1101 Third Design:
Full-scale prototype design of a flying test single-seat jet fighter with a wingspan of 8.06 m and a length of 8.98 m. It had a conventional tail and swept wings designed to be set at different angles while on the ground. Test flights were first intended to be undertaken with a 35 degree wing sweep, followed by a 45 degree sweep. The first test flight was to take place in June 1945.
Me P.1101 Fourth Design:
The final single-seat jet fighter design that went into production with a wingspan of 8.25 m, a length of 9.175 m and a weight of 1250 kg.
Me P.1101 L:
A ramjet-powered single-seat fighter that would have eight additional small rocket engines for take-off. This design would have a much wider fuselage covering the large Lorin ramjet located to the back of the cockpit, as well as a conventional tail.
