The Blohm & Voss P.209 was one of a series of single-engined jet fighter design studies. Under development in the latter half of 1944.
The design was submitted for the 1-TL-Jäger programme but was not taken forward. Circumstantial evidence suggests that concern was expressed over the location of the tailplane too close to the jet exhaust.
