JV-44 was formed under the command of Adolf Galland from a core of highly experienced Luftwaffe pilots, to fly the revolutionary Me262 twin engine jet fighter in the final months of the war. The specialist squadron was tasked to try a hold back the inevitable Allied victory.

The combination of pilot skill and the revolutionary twin engine jet fighter gave the Squadron immediate success. It was too little and too late to stop the Allied advance on Berlin, and the end of the War.

The print portrays Me262's of JV-44 diving into attack at close to 600 miles an hour. The print is signed by four JV 44 pilots, Adolf Galland, Johannes Steinhoff, Walter Krupinski and Herbert Kaiser.
