German HortenPlane fighter
Also known as the HortenHo229, it was an all-wing jet fighter designed by the German Horton brothers during World War II. Known for its unique flying wing design, without the traditional fuselage and tail, this design significantly reduces drag, improves the lift-to-drag ratio and overall efficiency. It was the first jet-powered flying-wing aircraft whose design foreshadowed the direction of modern stealth technology and influenced later aircraft designs. Although it was not mass-produced at the time and failed to play an actual role in the war, its innovative design and contribution to aviation technology made it an important milestone in aviation history.
German GothaGo229 fighter
Also known as the HortenHoIX, it was a flying-wing jet fighter designed by the Holden Brothers at the end of World War II. Known for its unique flying wing layout and jet power system, it is considered a technological pioneer of modern stealth fighters. It is the only model in the series to achieve powered flight, equipped with two Juncker Jumo004B turbojet engines. The center cabin of the aircraft is made of welded steel pipe, while the wing part is made of multi-layer plywood. This design meets the strength requirements while reducing weight. Although it failed to mass produce and entered the war, its innovative design occupies an important position in the history of aviation.
German HortenHo229 fighter
It was a revolutionary flying wing jet fighter developed by Germany during World War II and designed by the Holden Brothers. Known for its unique flying wing layout and jet power system, it is considered the technical prototype of modern stealth fighters. The wingspan is 16.76 meters, the captain is 7.47 meters, the shape is extremely streamlined, and the tailess flying wing design greatly reduces air resistance. The fuselage is mainly made of wood and composite materials, and the surface is coated with resin to reduce weight and reduce radar reflection signals. Although the Ho229 failed to mass produce and entered the war, its innovative design held an important place in aviation history.
German HortenPlane fighter
Also known as the HortenH.IX or Ho229, it was a full-wing jet fighter designed by the German Horton Brothers during World War II. Known for its unique flying wing design, without the traditional fuselage and tail, this design helps reduce drag and improve lift. It was the world's first full-wing jet aircraft. Its design was very avant-garde at that time. In theory, it could achieve a speed of more than 600 miles per hour, far exceeding other fighters at that time. Despite numerous technical problems and the fact that the only powered prototype crashed after several test flights, it was one of the most unusual combat aircraft tested during World War II.
World War II German Fw-190 Fighter (Fokker Wolfe Fw-190)
It was a single seat, single engine, straight wing, all metal piston fighter jet developed by Germany during World War II, and one of the best fighters in the mid to late stages of the war. The Fw-190 fighter, as a multi-purpose fighter, has outstanding performance and excellent high-speed maneuverability, making it unbeatable in combat against the Spitfire IX fighter, and even comparable to the later Spitfire XVI fighter. Its good field of view often allows it to use the S-breaking maneuver to reach the enemy's blind spot and then pull the lever to deliver fatal attacks to the enemy.
Me-262 fighter jet during World War II
The Me-262 fighter, nicknamed Schwalbe and translated as Feiyan, was a jet fighter developed by Germany before World War II and the first jet fighter in human aviation history to be used in combat. The aircraft is equipped with jet engines and adopts a swept back wing aerodynamic layout, representing a new direction in the development of fighter jets and also opening a new page in the history of air combat. Although the Me-262 fighter jet was seen as the last resort of the Nazi German Air Force in dire straits, and its production quantity fell far short of the demand to turn the tide of the war, less than a year of actual combat proved that it was a powerful combat aircraft.
Fighter Bf-109 during World War II
The Bf-109 fighter was a single seat, single engine, single wing, all metal piston fighter jet from Germany. It was one of the main fighter planes of the Nazi German Air Force during World War II and also one of the most outstanding light fighters in terms of comprehensive performance. The Bf-109 fighter jet features wings located beneath the fuselage, a full face cockpit, retractable landing gear, and a body and wings made entirely of metal. It belongs to the new generation of fighter jets and outperforms the Zero fighter jet in terms of performance, making it the most widely used military aircraft by Axis air forces. The Bf-109 fighter jet was designed by Messerschmitt, a designer at the Bavarian Aircraft Works in Germany.
