He joined the Luftwaffe in 1939 and flew his first combat mission in 1941. Kittel recorded his first aerial victories on June 30, 1941 during the German invasion of the Soviet Union. In early 1943 he began flying a Fw 190 and his total began to rise rapidly. On September 15, 1943 Kittel claimed his 100th aerial victory and on August 26, 1944, while flying Fw 190 “Yellow 5,” he achieved his 200th.
