BravoCorn의 생각…

아마 독일이 승전 혹은 휴전을 했으면 지금쯤 이상한 비행기가 많이 날라다니고 있지 않았을까 하는 생각. 결국 어부지리로 미국만 득템한듯….

lucky this did not get into mass production or this wouldve changed the game we'd all be eating sour kraut today!

i was in oki japan at the airforce base in 1986 and was in total aw over the b-2 bomber at that time and to this day had no idea that this was a german ripoff, and so are most of our rocket technology …. i guess some advantages to war is that you get rip ur enemies off and kidnapp there scientists and take full credit for great inventions abroad lol!

This wasn't a stealth plane, it was just a blended wing design. An incredible leap forward in the evolution of aircraft yes, but not a stealth plane.

MST4K, it WAS a world's first stealth plane. Due to it's blended wing design witout tail wing it was almost invisible to radar. It was actually a surprise for Horton brothers. After noticing Horton's 229 stealth capalibities they developed them even futher.

Robin Yates, Not just years. Generations ahead.

Yes, another magnificent GERMAN design copied by the USA.

Germany gets a bumm rap, Uncle Adolf was just trying to clean up the world of all its geneic refuse

did they fly it? Way cool.

yea i think Nazi germany was the advanced generation due to there ability to make technology way above there generation if they were still around today would be great to see what type of jets bombers and missles they would have created today

@Dave,

There was a program on in the UK just the other day about the Horton 229.

The did fly the first one created, but it had engine trouble and crashed. The pictures on this site are the second one which was never completed, due to the end of the War.

Now we know what Hitler’s wonder weapon was. If this is what they had in the 40′s, Oh we gots some badass shit now.

German technology by the end of the war was staggeringly advanced, including the near-functional Ho-229, jet fighters, and the trans-Atlantic Amerika bomber. If Hitler hadn't made the stunningly bad decision to invade the Soviet Union, all of those squandered resources would have been put into R&D for this stuff, and it's anyone's guess how the war would've turned out.
The Ho-229 had a carbon coating that made it very much an early stealth plane. There is speculation that the 9 objects that Kenneth Arnold saw in 1947, which started the whole modern "flying saucer" craze, were actually Hoo-229s developed by the US using the German plans and prototype. Arnold's original description of the objects fits the 229 perfectly.

Last!!!
