The only rocket powered aircraft of the Second Global war, the DFI-292 Himmelskugel (Sky Bullet) was developed by Dieswen as a high speed bomber interceptor in 1940 and saw combat action in 1944. The Himmelskugel was suprisingly ineffective as a Bomber interceptor despite its speed and agility as it wielded a single 30mm cannon and very little fuel which only allowed the aircraft to fly for about 8-10 minutes before needing to land. Landing the Himmelskugel proved to be exceptionally dangerous as its landing gear would eject upon take off and the plane would be required to land on a skid.

The aircraft overall suffered a massive amounts of problems; one of the most noticeable was the dolly gear, in order to prevent the plane from sliding around on the tarmac the aircraft was outfitted with a four-wheeled eject able dolly unit that in initial testing, would be snagged on the Himmelskugel's wings as it would flail upwards, causing the aircraft to crash. Landing would also prove just as risky with landing as the Himmelskugel proved to have superior gliding capability, leading ot even the slightest updrafts to send the aircraft airborne once again in its un-powered form.

Despite the massive threat to human lives and costly behaviors of the DFI-292, the aircraft remained in service for the remainder of the war.
