By the end of 1944, the
OKL (High Command of the Luftwaffe) realized that a better
high-altitude fighter was needed, and they wanted to take advantage of the new
He S 011 jet engine which was being developed. Thus, the
Emergency Fighter Competition came into being. By
February 1945, three proposals had been received from
Messerschmitt, two from
Focke-Wulf and one each from
Heinkel, Junkers and Blohm & Voss. The
Blohm & Voss entry was the
BV P.212.03. The first of the
BV P.212 designs featured a
short, squat fuselage, with a
short air intake to the He S 011 jet engine in the
fuselage rear. The
wings were swept back at 45 degrees, and featured a small amount of dihedral.
Two small vertical fins were located near the wingtips. The second of the
BV P.212 designs was a refinement of the previous
BV P.212.01. The fuselage was lengthened, and
the wings now featured downturned wingtips in place of the wingtip fins of the BV P.212.01. -

No final de 1944, A alemanha Nazista precisava de um
caça de alta altitude de melhor desempenho, para ser usado com o novo motor à jato He S 011, então o
Alto Comando da Luftwaffe fez uma espécie de
competição de emergência, onde seriam apresentados
novos projetos de caças. Em
fevereiro de 1945, cinco propostas foram apresentadas à
Messerschmitt: duas da
Focke-Wulf e uma de cada uma dessas empresas,
Heinkel, Junkers and Blohm & Voss. A proposta da
Blohm & Voss foi o modelo
BV P.212.03. O primeiro da série
BV P.212 apresentava uma fuselagem curta e chata com uma
entrada de ar estreita para comportar o novo motor à jato He S 011. -
