A very rare picture indeed! According to Wikipedia:
"Delivery commenced in January 1945. When the United States Army overran the
Oberpfaffenhofen factory in late April 1945, only 11 Do 335 A-1 single-seat
fighter-bombers and two Do 335 A-12 trainers had been completed."
I have always been fascinated by the Arrow. I didn't realize so few had
actually been built.
