The first 10 '''Do 335 A-0'''s were delivered for testing in May 1944. Do 335 V3, (T9+ZH), W.Nr. 230003 was delivered to the Luftwaffe's experimental reconnaissance unit, 1./Versuchsverband OKL, in late May. However, it suffered constant problems and was returned to Dornier in September.{{sfn|Creek|Smith|2018|p=162}} By late 1944, the '''Do 335 A-1''' was on the production line. It was similar to the A-0 but with the uprated DB 603E-1 engines of around {{cvt|1324|kW}} take-off power rating  on 87 octane fuel,<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20161022011756/http://www.fischer-tropsch.org/primary_documents/gvt_reports/MofFP/ger_syn_ind/mof-secth.pdf Archived Fischer-Tropsch.org pdf file (extract) pp.119–120.] Retrieved:27 March 2019.</ref> and two underwing [[hardpoint]]s for additional [[bomb]]s, [[drop tank]]s or guns. It had a maximum speed of {{cvt|763|km/h}} at    {{cvt|6500|m}} with [[MW 50]] boost, or {{cvt|686|km/h}} without boost, and climbed to {{cvt|8000|m}} in under 15 minutes. Even with one engine out, it reached about {{cvt|563|km/h}}.{{Citation needed|reason=actual numbers should be verifiable|date=December 2017}}
