Hi,

it originated in the Klemm-Flugzeugwerke Halle that had been founded in 1934
as a branch of Leichtflugzeugbau Klemm in Böblingen. Its name changed to Siebel Flugzeugwerke when it was taken over by Friedrich Siebel in December 1937.

After World War II the company was revived as Siebel Flugzeugwerke ATG (SIAT) in West Germany in 1948, with its headquarters in Munich. In 1956, its headquarters were moved to Donauwörth and the company became WMD-Siebelwerke ATG (WMD/SIAT) in 1958 in cooperation with Waggon- und Maschinenbau GmbH Donauwörth (WMD). In 1968 the company was absorbed by Messerschmitt-
Bölkow-Blohm after MBB became the major shareholder.

Its products were;

Fh.104,Si,201,Si.202,Si.204,Si.304,Si.308,SIAT.311,SIAT.313,SIAT.222,SIAT.223,SIAT.224 & BS.210,later I will talk about them.

I am not sure about SIAT-225 ? designation,only my guess.
 
To compete Bachem Ba.349,Siebel submitted a proposal for this contest,may
it used the RLM 348 designation ?it's only my speculation.
