Bachem Werke GmbH was founded in Feb.10, 1942, by Dipl.-Ing. Erich Bachem the company manufactured spare parts for piston engine fighters, and other aircraft equipment before the Natter project was created. Photo could be one of four Ba.349's, that were captured near St. Leonhard, Austria.

Plans for the Ba 349 were sold to the Japanese, but they managed to partially build a few examples, before the end of WWII. One example survives today at the Smithsonian Institution, Washington D.C.

A total of (20) or (36) Ba 349's were produced, none saw combat. The Natter was built, as a simple way of getting a pilot within range of high-flying bombers and launching an array of 24 Henschel Hs 217 7.3cm or R4M 5.5cm unguided rockets in the nose were its only armament. After the attack, the pilot would bale out to land by parachute, the aircraft from the cockpit back also descended by parachute recovering the rocket motor for re-use.
