Founded in 1925 in Warnemünde, Arado-Flugzeugwerke, from the outset, produced civil aircraft as well as developing prototypes for the clandestine armament programme of the Reichswehr. From 1933 when the licensed production of military aircraft commenced, the factory also built a number of their own designs. Best known are the training aircraft Ar 66 and Ar 96, the catapult float-plane Ar 196 and the record-breaking sporting aircraft Ar 79. With the two- or four-engined Ar 234, the world's first operational jet-bomber was born. At the end of the war Arado initiated the project of the first supersonic experimental aircraft. This book charts the development of all Arado aircraft between 1925 and 1945 as well as the development and capabilities of the factory. It also gives an overview of the licence-productions and other projects. The information is based on original documents and will rectify some of the speculation and fantasy that has been published about the Arado-Flugzeugwerke.

Koos, Volker: - Born in 1947 on the Baltic Island Rügen, Dr Volker Koos studied physics at the Rostock University. With a life-long fascination for aviation and its history he collected photos and documentary material in his private archive. Besides his professional work he has written a number of books and many articles about German aviation history. Living in Rostock, over the years he was lucky to meet former personnel of the Heinkel and Arado factories that were founded in the town. They provided him with first-hand information and much original matter for his studies of aviation history.
