  1. LUFTWAFFE 1944: "It's an emergency, we need quick-to-produce aircraft which can be thrown into action with barely trained pilots next week".
    GERMAN INDUSTRY: "Let's design aircraft which will take years to develop, might be unflyable and which require 2km-long runways which aren't full of craters".

  2. Reminds me of AMC Motorcar Company the mix if leftover parts and the invention of what's needed to build the projects.
    4 Jet Engines of 2 separate designs forward Mount and swept Back Wings,Forward Gunner Platform.This Jet Bomber is some piece of work.I wouldn't have liked being the first test crew and pilots of this aircraft let alone Battle!What a futuristic design.Thanks.

  3. That is the great vibeo. But I am so disappointed to see a promotion of "War Thunder" Game, that co-works with Russian terrorist, that fight during war against Ukraine and have new collaboration with War Thunder on their channels.

  5. That fact the the video is about the ju-287 and is sponsored by war thunder the perfect game to have the ju-287 but the craziest aircraft in it is the ho-229-v3 and the ju-287 isn’t in it

  6. The gray pods mounted under the engines of the JU-287 were essentially RATO pods (Rocket assisted take off) which would have been jettisoned after take-off. They would have no business being on the craft while it's doing its bomb run.

  7. The Ju 287 V1 flew with piston engines and little data is available telling us about stability and if it would have been suitable for bombing missions. It took months of testing to figure out the US flying wing bomber Northrup was building late in WW2 had stability issues that would have make it unsuitable for bombing missions. Though that was fixed the entire programs was cancelled after several models were made. Point is the V1 never had the air time to tell us anything but it flew. It sure would not be fast with the propeller engines it carried. Again no data come from the Soviets efforts and even information on the Mikulin AM-2 engines is hard to find. This is another one of those paper airplanes like the Ho 229 What if content providers like to bring out.

  8. Terrific ideas without the staying power engines wise. Since the Germans did not have the correct heat resistant alloys, these engines would not last. So advanced wings and stuff mean nothing if the engines won't keep flying with any robustness none of these Jumo or any German engine had in the day.

  9. There were no NAZI aircraft but only those of the Luftwaffe. To describe German wartime aircraft is just as strange as to describe Englisch and American aircraft as democratic aircraft. Just a thought!
