They rebuilt one of these here in America at a normally Top Secret Jet plant for a temporary sort of fun run. They tested it up against radars of the time and found that this thing would have run a much on Britain and a lot of allies. No advanced warning and nothing on the planet fast enough to catch it.

The Horten 229 or as it is also called the Go 229. Of course the Horten 229 flew well but it was not fast. I have flown Hort 229 in IL-2 stormovik in 1946 in dogfights and other things. But the Gota 60 was much better in speed, climbing ability and maneuverability in the air. Gota 60 was available in three variants A, B and C. A was the basic concept, B was day hunting and C was night hunting. Both are twin-engined. Horten has glide, propeller and jet. I wouldn't have the horten 229 as a fighter plane, it's too sluggish. Otherwise, a very bold design. 🏆♥🎓💻🖥🖱💽💾⌨📺📸📐📏🪃

[@Alias1983]

If you watch the documentary WW2: secret allied aircraft, it highlights a bat wing shaped aircraft the Americans were working on. Though I believe the horten229 was a little more far ahead than the american bat wing. Also, in order for the horten229 to be a game changer, they would've had to be mass produced in large numbers long before the tides turned in Russia. Arguably nothing would stop the Russians feom getting to Berlin. But if they had these mass produced in time to go after factories in stalingrad and other territories not yet occupied by germany, such as the tank factories and other weapons manufacturing facilities then I believe the more advanced tanks Russia developed would've never made it into full production and Stalin would've never be able to turn the tide in his favor.

[@peterson7082]

+Alias1983 The 229's were no more than proof of concepts for flying wings, it was never intended for production. In what way was it more advanced? While an argument could be made by the solutions for these design challenges were different and advanced in a different means, they were never as a whole more advanced.

[@user6008]

In 1945 the Nazi's had intercontinental ballistic missiles (VI & VII), jet fighters (ME262), (Dornier 335) heavy fighter/ bomber and a stealth bomber (Horten 229)......... Yet they lost in spectacular fashion. Why? One singular answer: Hitler was an incompetent oaf. When his Generals asked for the STG44 ( first fully automatic assault rifle)to be mass produced in 1942 , Hitler said no. The rest of these magnificent weapons were wasted and could have been developed years earlier. Rommel wanted to use the VI & VII to destroy allied troops at the Normandy beaches, Hitler said no and continued to waste them against random civilian targets. In fact, Hitler routinely ignored his generals and countermanded them to Germany's destruction. History fails to record that the vast majority of the attempts to kill Hitler were carried out by his own military, go figure.

[@0341MarineInfantry]

+John Hancock While the German rocket program was a pretty stunning achievement it was sorely lacking in its accuracy, range and payload capability...so it was a non-factor. The Me 262 had a large number of flaws and was a terrible dogfighter...a non-factor also. The Do-335 was a remarkable aircraft but we can only guess what it could have done if it became available in large quantity. You can't say the Ho-229 existed. It never made it past the proof of concept prototype stage. Gotha changed the original Horten design enough to send it right back to the drawing board. Germany lost the war because they attacked Russia plain and simple. That was the one great decision by Hitler that ensured Germanys defeat. Semper Fi !

[@user6008]

About the Do-335, I personally believe the aircraft would have decimated allied fighters and bombers alike. I'd call it the A-10 of it's day that never saw combat. As for Hitler attacking Russia, it was more poor tactical thinking on Adolph's part. Even worse, some historians have the opinion that if the STG44 been available to German troops at Stalingrad, they would would have prevailed.

[@0341MarineInfantry]

+John Hancock Haha..considering the A-10 is a dedicated ground attack/tank buster aircraft comparing the Do-335 to it is a vast stretch to say the least.I believe you are correct tho that it might have really hurt Allied airpower if it had been available in large enough numbers. Hitler's attack on Russia was a strategic mistake, his ordering the attack toward Antwerp was a tactical one. Huge difference. Any historian that carrys the opinion that a single weapons change would have made a difference at Stalingrad is NOT worth listening to nor even considering a historian. The Stg was a very good weapon but by no means would it have changed the outcome at Stalingrad. Not even close. Semper Fi !

The Smithsonian Institution has performed a technical study of the materials used and determined that there is "no evidence of carbon black or charcoal in the Horten jet" thus invalidating the proposed mechanism for an essentially non-existent radar absorbent property as compared to the control sample of plywood used in the original testing. Radar simulations showed that a hypothetical Ho 229, with the radar characteristics of the mockup which had neither metal frame nor engines, approaching the English coast from France flying at 885 kilometres per hour (550 mph) at 15-30 metres (49-98 ft) above the water would have been visible to CH radar at a distance of 80% that of a Bf 109[15] This implies a frontal RCS of only 40% that of a Bf 109 at the Chain Home frequencies. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horten_Ho_229

Il primo aereo a reazione da combattimento e' stato un'invenzione italo-tedesca nella seconda guerra mondiale: prima in Italia con il prototipo "Caproni Campioni n1, nel 1938, poi perfezionato dai tedeschi che hanno dimostrato un'alta tecnologia, copiata finita la guerra dagli americani.Quindi l'aereo a reazione e' stata un un 'venzione italo-tedesca, con molto orgoio .

Os ingleses e russos também copiaram vários projetos de aviões alemães. Os russos ficaram na dianteira na construção de foguetes porque conseguiram encontrar um projeto de V2 alemão completo.

still my favourite aircraft! stunning design! faaaaar ahead of its time! i have a simple question: why is the prototype still rotten away in a old hangar in the us? this is an epic aircraft! needs to be fully rebuild! i guess, a lot, a really lot of people would like to see this in perfect new condition! whats the problem? with modern technology and tools this could be done in a year or two...

Conservation work has started on the surviving example. It is not being rebuilt, but deteriorated and missing parts are being cosmetically restored with materials that will not harm the original artifact. ids.si.edu/ids/deliveryService?max_w=780&id=airandspace.si.edu/webimages/640/10009_640.jpg

[@barrierodliffe4155]

So far ahead it did not exist. The Hortens never made more than a glider, Gotha did make a small experimental plane that just flew but crashed killing the test pilot and Gotha started work on another experimental plane, both had no provisions for any weapons and fantasists keep on about the Horten Ho 229 which was only on paper.

[@goldeneagle3218]

First starwars fighter.😮 What if Battle of Britain happened between Holten 229 vs Spitfire in 1946?

[@sneekmatrix]

The Holten 229 was superior to the messerschmit 109 and that was only the 3rd production prototype which crashed on landing killing its test pilot. However, it did outperform the Me109 especially in service cieling 45000 feet and top speed in excess of 600mph. It also could carry more armament and had a 600 mile range. If it had of been utilised earlier in the war then the outcome would of been much different. It was conceived and built towards the last few months of the war.

[@tytewire]

Control stability an issue not solved in this generation of tailess wing airplane, look at the extreme (near out of control) buffeting at this time frame (3;15) and ask yourself what the pilots attention would be focused on? 100% just to keep from crashing, forget trying to aim and shoot at anything (you'd never hit it anyway). I suspect the reason you see no fighter aircraft of this type today is that the only advantage is the reduced drag (less, not more maneuverable) and conventional modern designs have alredy reduced drag co-eficient to such a high degree that top speeds are generally in excess of what constitutes a major tactical advantage anyway. The reason you DO see bombers of this type are the advances in flight controls and the reduced drag can translate to exteme range/ large payloads, (Northrops application of the concept). As much as we can all admire the daring and engineering prowess of the Hortens design, the earliest example of tailess or near tailess planes must be credited to early British designers and an American builder, this you can discover yourself with a simple goggle search (sorry folks),.

[@BewareOfTheKraut]

The Horton brothers won several races in self made all wing gliders long before WWII. Google it!

[@barrierodliffe4155]

The Horten`s never got beyond gliders. The Gotha experimental plane flew but crashed, it was a failure.

Yes thats right.

[@Schlipperschlopper]

The correct name is not HORTEN 229, its real name is HORTEN 9, GOTHA 229.

[@FiveCentsPlease]

+Schlipperschlopper The naming system used by the RLM was based on the manufacturer. Do for Dornier, He for Heinkel, etc. So Gotha was the chosen manufacturer of the eventual production 229, so it would probably have been designated the Go-229 unless the RLM wanted to give a nod to the Horten brothers and adopt it as the Ho-229.
