Collection of secret and incredible Nazi aircraft
Leapfrogging bombers, Sun guns, jet bombers, non-opponents, . are "works" that show great progress and development in Nazi weapons production from several decades ago.

Silbervogel - silver bird
Silbervogel is a bomber capable of flying from Germany to the United States, acting as a roller coaster, gliding on the air cushion like a rock skimming across the water at speeds of up to 22,000 km / h. Using a rocket propulsion engine, the aircraft will perform high jumps before lowering to the target, bombing and then gradually returning to the Nazi allies.
The purpose of the German army to design Silbervogel was to bomb the United States, the country far from both Japan, Germany and Italy. But only one prototype of Silbervogel was created and studied in a secret factory in northern Germany.
The project failed, but the idea of the Silbervogel was used by the US as a premise for modern-day aircraft and spacecraft.
Arado Ar 234
This was the first jet bomber in the world to use jet engines almost impossible to stop during World War II years.
Ar 234 was produced by German company Arado and was only shipped in very small quantities, mainly for detective missions. When used, Ar 234A reaches 742 km / h, optimal height of 6,000 m, operating range of 1,556 km. An extremely impressive achievement compared to the aircraft of that period.
Focke-Wulf Ta 400
Focke-Wulf Ta 400 is a large bomber that uses 6 propeller engines, performs bombing and long-range reconnaissance missions. Focke-Wulf Ta 400 was developed in 1943 and is also part of a US bomber project like the Nazi Silbervogel.
This is the first aircraft developed by many countries and components manufactured in Germany, France and Italy. But, this project only stopped at the wind tunnel test model.
Messerschmitt Me 323 Gigant
Me 321/323 is a German military transport aircraft during World War II, and is the largest transport aircraft ever used in the war with 213 produced.
Me 323 is capable of carrying 1 FH18 cannon weighing 5.5 tons, two 4-ton trucks, Sd.Kfz.7 transport vehicle (11 tons), an 88mm anti-aircraft gun + accessories, 52 fuel tanks, 8,700 loaves of bread, 130 soldiers and 60 ambulance stretchers. In addition, the head of the aircraft can be opened for loading.
When flying near Me sea level 323, the maximum speed is only 219 km / h and the higher the speed, the slower. Me 323 was equipped with 5 13mm MG 131 machine guns in the back of the wing and fuselage for self-defense.
Heinkel He 162 Volksjäger
He 162 is a single aircraft using jet engines. It is made primarily of wood because the period was very scarce and preferred to make other types of aircraft. But He 162 is still considered the fastest jet among Fascists and Allies jets. He 162 is equipped with 3 30mm guns with 50 capsules or 2 20mm guns with 100 tablets each.
Horten H.IX Ho 229
Ho 229 is a German bomber and combat prototype. It is the only aircraft that is close to the German Air Force's requirement of the 3x1000 standard: capable of carrying 1000 kg of flying bombs 1000 km away with the lowest speed of 1000 km / h.
Ho 229 is a mixed design, consisting of a central shell made of steel pipes and a vertical section of wings made of wood that are joined together with a mixture of sawdust and charcoal. Reimar Horten, Ho 229's designer, revealed that he had mixed coal powder with wood glue to absorb the electromagnetic waves emitted by the radar, making the aircraft invisible to the UK's early warning radar system.
Ho 229 also stopped at the prototype level because the engine needed to operate the aircraft at the speed required too much fuel consumption.
Scientists from Northrop-Grumman Company went to study Ho 229 when it was seized by the Americans, to create the Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit.
Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet
Me 163 is the only fighter aircraft used by German rocket engines. This is also the first manned aircraft to reach the speed of 1130km / h, recorded in July 1944.
But Komet was ineffective in the role of an interceptor when only 18 allied aircraft were fired.
Sun gun - Sun gun
The German army wanted to put a super-large mirror 1.5 km in diameter on Earth's geostationary orbit, at an altitude of 8200 km. It will focus the sunlight and then project it into a certain area on Earth, burning the equipment, facilities and enemy troops in the radius of the light.
