Biography
German military man, a racing pilot and stunt flyer, a fighter pilot Ace in WW I with 62 confirmed victories, second only to von Richthofen with 80. One of the important planners of the Luftwaffe, he became Chief Inspector General in 1938 in charge of aircraft design, production and inspection.
Udet concentrated on fighter planes, falling short on the production of heavy bombers. His gift was for design and he was not adept at administration, nor did he have the most able overview. Hitler began to be short with him and disapproving, finding that his advice was not always in good judgment. When the Luftwaffe fell behind the air power of the Allies and failed to win WW II, Udet found himself in great disgrace. Anguished and depressed, he committed suicide by gunshot on 17 November 1941 in Berlin, Germany.
