This is really just a quick muse and I am curious about other peoples opinions. In a moment of mind wander I considered that perhaps Germany could have increased the utility of the V1/V2 force by targeting the weapons against British south coast ports and later the Normandy peninsular following...
Hi,
after finally crossing my sources I present you guys a Heinkel project to embark in the "Graf Zeppelin" aircraft carrier. The well-known sesquiplane He114 was subject to an advanced design featuring retractable wheels (I don`t know about the tail one) and a bigger (full span?) lower wing...
In 1945 Heinkel began development of a bomber which was propelled by four jet engines.
This bomber has the layout of the later Victor bomber used by the RAF, a delta wing with a T shaped tail.
This bomber was capable to reach long distance targets I believe even targets into the US.
I'm...
I have this poor scan of the Blohm und Voss P.200 Transocean seaplane. Does anyone know if a cleaner version of this cutway exists in any published books or articles? I'd like to find a cleaner version.
Thanx in advance,

Dear forum members,
does anyone have any decent fotos or drawings of the Rheinbote missile?
It would be great if somebody of you could help me out.

I have a very poor microfilm blueprint scan of the Blohm und Voss P.173.02 long range bomber.
From what I can make out it is a six engined bomber that shares the wings and tail of the BV 238 seaplane.
Does anyone have any good drawings or information on this project?
I'll try to make as clean...

The Panzerkampfwagen IX and Panzerkampfwagen X were theoretical projects developed by the German military during World War II using the latest developments of Panzerkampfwagen armored vehicles, intended to enter in action in 1946-47.
Such vehicles only existed as projects on drawing boards...
Panzerkampfwagen VII Löwe ("Lion") was a design for a Super Heavy Tank created by Krupp for the Nazi German government during World War II. The project never left the drawing board, and was dropped in late 1942 in favor of the Panzer VIII Maus.
Leichter ("Light") Löwe – crew of five, 1000-hp...
I have seen that there is some info about steam powered Me-264. But is there info about other projects like Ta-400? There should be a wind tunnel model ...

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...
