Did the XT-7 "Rotkappchen" and M42 see action in WW2? The XT-7 is mounted on a small trailer which doubles as the launch platform. The M42 (86mm rocket) is mounted on a stand and the base plate seems to be bolted to the ground. The M42 also has a launch tube and sighting mechanism similar to a...

Hi folks, I couldn't find an existing one so here is a thread for and unknown, secret or rare Junkers Ju-87 variants. To start with here is a photo (albeit poor quality) of a Jumo 213E powered Ju-87. It was a trial installation on a Ju87B. Regards, Greg

Germans fielded a number of airborne AT rockets in the winter of 1944/45. There were Panzerschreck 1 and 2 and Panzerblitz 1 and 2, while Panzerblitz 3 and 4 were in development. Sadly, there's an incredible mess in available books as far as details of these rockets are concerned - e.g. I...

Hi lads, Weserflug was incorporated in the mid 30`s, assuming the assets of the former Rohrbach works, and also fielding Dr. Adolf Rohrbach as chief designer. Take a look at this excellent site, unfortunatelly not updated for quite a long time...

Hi lads, I wonder if you could shed some light on this ones. Any hints? Enjoy. The first picture was sent to me by Justo some time ago. The second one is taken from Manfred Griehl`s "Deutsche Flugzeugbawaffnung bis 1945", Motorbuch verlag, which I strongly recommend.

Does anyone have any information on a late-war German scissor-wing project titled Messerschmitt Courier (turbojet project). This design is similar to the Messerschmitt P.1108. I have a very simple resin kit by Part Time Models and was looking for more information to detail the kit - i.e - how...
