why does it have russian description???
-
probably cus it was taken from a Russian site. But take note, that plane was not used very much at all. One of Hitler's "Secret Weapons" that rarely saw action.

Nope got it from the game, right from the objects view.
-
so what is it again?
Did it really exists?
Did it shoot down anyone?
Future perk plane?
-
It did exist. I dont think it ever saw combat though. It inspired the B-2, obviously.
-
Why isn't this talked about much.
If Hitler had all these secret weapons, I'd wish we could have learned about these in school.

That is one great movie! I have the Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator Pacific Theatre (quite a mouth-full...)
I could not stop laughing when the pilot said 'c'mon, we don't want to keep the enemy waiting!' :aok

They wouldn't mention them much in general books or curriculums basically because of what United said: they rarely or never saw action. They had been creations, some tested, some not. So, good thing we invaded Germany when we did or he could have used em effectively. German's also gave their prints for the ME-262 (I think it was just the engine layout, not the whole plane) I believe to the Japanese. I think we sank one of their seacraft that held the info on their way back to Japan, but another one still got there. Like Germany, the Japanese never got to use them because it was too late, but they did start to produce them. Edit: I believe the Japanese did use a couple jet engine aircraft, but there sure were not many of them. Could these "secret weapons" have made a difference in the war? Can't really tell... But they did have the technology and were already starting to build models and models of jet planes.

That was awful!

History Channels airs "Secret Weapons of World War II" sometimes Kermit. They show the German and Japanese secret weapons, keep an eye out for it. It's a good one.

heh, that was the shortest P-47 takeoff roll I ever saw. I like how 2 HVARs take out a whole bridge too. Looked like they were laser guided. And what's up with the canopy rail behind the pilot's head in a bubbletop P-47?
