The '''DFS 346''' (''Samolyot 346'') was a [[Nazi Germany|German]] [[rocket]]-powered swept-wing aircraft which began development during [[World War II]] in Germany. It was designed by [[Felix Kracht]] at the ''[[Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug]]'' (DFS), the "German Institute for Sailplane Flight". A prototype was constructed but did not reach completion before the end of the war. It was taken to the [[Soviet Union]] where it was completed, tested and flown (with indifferent success).<ref>{{cite web|last=Hallion|first=Richard, P.|title=The NACA, NASA, and the Supersonic-Hypersonic Frontier|url=https://ntrs.nasa.gov/archive/nasa/casi.ntrs.nasa.gov/20100025896_2010028361.pdf|work=NASA|publisher=NASA Technical Reports Server|access-date=7 September 2011}}</ref>
