It was clear to those who examined the wreckage that one engine had failed but the eyewitness saw no control movements or attempt to line up with the runway and he suspected that something had incapacitated Ziller, perhaps fumes from the operating engine.Walter was convinced that the engine failure did not result in uncontrollable yaw and argued that Ziller could have shut down the functioning engine and glided to a survivable crash landing, perhaps even reached the runway and landed without damage. According to Reimar and Walter, the Me 262 had a much higher wing loading than the H IX and it required such a long runway to take off that only a few airfields in Germany could accommodate it. ",Thomas Dobrenz, Aldo Spadoni, Michael Jorgensen, ",This page was last edited on 5 August 2020, at 00:53. The design was taken from the Horten brothers and given to Gothaer Waggonfabrik. At the time of Ziller’s crash, the RLM had scheduled series production of 15-20 machines at Gotha.Horten had planned to arm the third prototype with cannons but the war ended before this airplane was finished. Something that will immediately stand out with the Ho 22… Walter also believed that someone might have sabotaged the airplane but whatever the cause, Walter remembered “it was an awful event. The Ho 229 V3 is a rank V German jet fighter with a battle rating of 7.3 (AB/RB) and 7.7 (SB). Reichsluftfahrtministerium, the German Ministry of Aviation, gave the plane the identity Ho 229.

Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, VA.In 1943, the chief of the German Luftwaffe (Air Force), Hermann Göring, allocated half-a-million Reich Marks to the brothers Reimar and Walter Horten to build and fly several prototypes of the all-wing and jet-propelled Horten Ho 229 (‘aitch-oh-two-two-nine’). Oddly enough, neither Reimar nor Walter Horten mentioned to Allied intelligence specialists immediately after the war the RCS techniques that Reimar claimed in 1983 he applied to the Ho 229 during the war, a peculiar omission in light of Reimar's strong interest in resuming his work with an Allied aviation firm. The third prototype was designated the Ho 229 V3. He decreed that henceforth he would not approve for production another new twin-engine airplane unless it could carry 1,000 kg (2,210 lb) of bombs to a ‘penetration depth’ of 1,000 km (620 miles, penetration depth defined as 1/3 the range) at a speed of 1,000 km/h (620 mph). I feel that the emphasis should be less on these teeny particles and more on the overall swept-wing look of the aircraft.”,At some point in the aircraft’s history, engineers may have tested its Junkers Jumo 004 B-2 turbojet engines.
