Horten Ho-229 "Propaganda"

50.7k ChaMikey  8.5 years ago

Finally! one of MANY projects i have been silently building in my cave, the horten Ho-229 with a slight touch of facism (NOTE : This does not in anyway propagate Nazism, only for an additional immersion) Very special thanks to @Seeras for helping me make this thing Fly well, a Repaint will be out later on!

======INSTRUCTIONS======

-Vtol up and down for the landing gears

-Landing is very hard, like... VERY. hard. so try to drop speed about 150mph and keep the nose up.

hope you guys enjoy!

Information :

The Horten H.IX, RLM designation Ho 229 (or Gotha Go 229 for extensive re-design work done by Gotha to prepare the aircraft for mass production) was a German prototype fighter/bomber initially designed by Reimar and Walter Horten to be built by Gothaer Waggonfabrik late in World War II. It was the first flying wing to be powered by jet engines.[1]

The design was a response to Hermann Göring's call for light bomber designs capable of meeting the "3×1000" requirement; namely to carry 1,000 kilograms (2,200 lb) of bombs a distance of 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) with a speed of 1,000 kilometres per hour (620 mph). Only jets could provide the speed, but these were extremely fuel-hungry, so considerable effort had to be made to meet the range requirement. Based on a flying wing, the Ho 229 lacked all extraneous control surfaces to lower drag. It was the only design to come even close to the 3×1000 requirements and received Göring's approval. Its ceiling was 15,000 metres (49,000 ft).

    My only problem with landing is the tendency for the front gear to drift and make the craft spin-out, otherwise an absolutely beautiful plane!

    I saw your aircraft and I noticed it had the inlets below the wings and decided to download it and put the inlets behind those black circles in the front. Just letting you know I am resubmitting it but still giving full credit to you.
