An uncommon sight in Europe's skies

[pampa14]

I share with you an interesting collection of pictures showing one of the projects launched at the end of World War II by Germany as part of its war effort to try to avoid the increasingly Allied bombing. The big question remains whether this rocket plane had been built in greater quantities and earlier would have changed the final outcome? What do you think? Visit the link below, see photos and give your opinion about it.

That's the Natter, isn't it?

 

Interesting aircraft, but very much the product of desperation rather then innovation. Effectively a manned-SAM, and one that killed the test pilot...

 

In answer to your question: No - my considered opinion is that given the limited endurance and payload of this aircraft it would have had little impact upon the final outcome.
