Description
Until the end of the Second World War, the brothers Reimar and Walter Horten were two of the most famous aircraft designers in Germany. They brought their experience in this area to a special unit that was responsible for the development of tailless all-wing aircraft as Sonderkommando 9. The development of the machine known as Horten Ho IX with two BMW 003A-1 jet engines began in 1942. While the first machines could only be manufactured as gliders due to difficulties with the jet engine, the second prototype received a Jumo 004B -1 engine. In 1944 the V2 made its first flight at a speed of over 780 km / h. The production of the Horten was transferred to the Gothaer Waggonfabrik and the name changed to Go 229. The first machine from the Gothaer Waggonfabrik, the Go 229 AO V3, received a Jumo 004-C engine.
