The Luftwaffe’s Experimental Triebflügeljäger Project.
Myhra.This is the story of the first attempt to perfect a tail-sitting vertical take off and landing (VTOL) interceptor flying machine – Focke-Wulf’s thrust wing fighter project of 1944. An interceptor that could rise straight up from its hiding place to meet and attack Allied bombers head on, it would then return to its runway-less spot to arise again. Highly unusual, then or today. 128 pgs., 240 B&W and color photos and drawings, 8½”x 11″, sfbd.
