As to the do-238, the correct designation was used Do-P.238 / internal designation for the company.
I have a picture from the Czech magazine "Aero PK Revue" where the draft was a serial designation Dornier Do-435 A. ???

All variants with DB603L engines.

According to British Intelligence document:

It was a modified Do 335 version intended as a night fighter. Crew of two seated syde-by-side in pressurized cockpit. Radar equipment. Long-span wooden panels. Jumo 222 engines.

I've seen this design several times referred to as post-war mythology. I've certainly never seen any wartime drawings or references to it.
 
From an old split topic, Dornier's "Volksjäger" proposal.

Thank you my dear Toura,


I have this book,but the most notable thing,that's the Dornier P projects
are very rare,why ?!.
 
Anther mystery,


in that polish site,they speak about P.92 as the basis for Dornier Do.214,and they
mention after that the projects,which begin with P.192.1,and I am asking if P.92
is a misprint and they mean P.192 ?.

I think you could go to the LEMB (Google LEMB) , and then go to "projects , prototype etc ..." : I hope that it is open to the guess too ...


Good Luck

Hi,


a strange thing,I found in the book; Luftwaffe '45 letzte Fluge und Projekte,they mentioned
the Do 350 designation under the drawing for Do P.256,and I can't explain,what was this ?.

Translation:

The Do 350 represented an improved jet-powered version of the Do 335, but its production was no longer possible because of the war situation.

This must have been the caption to another image on the opposite page.
 
Yes Stargazer,


but that's a new designation for me.

About the first picture, showing the twin fuselage design: Although mentioned in the caption as
"P.231 design", the compared predictions for frontal area, drag and maximum speed, to my opinion
show pretty well, that the twin fuselage wasn't shown there as a "project", but as a prove of the
superiority of the push-pull concept.
 
OK my dear Jemiba,


but why they wrote on it, Entwurf 2 ?.
 
To my opinion it was an attempt to promote the push-pull concept by proving,
that a more conventional design would be inferior.
 
I agree with that my dear Jemiba,


but it is the first time to me to see Do P.237 drawing .

As the caption says, the P.237 was the basis for the Do 335B-6, so at least in this
case it could be regarded more as an internal designation, I think

Those are pre-studies of the Do X, AFAIK.
