EMW A-9/6P Kolkrabe

12.3k MadAgus  1.5 years ago


A Nazi SR-71, which is one of thousands of V-2 variants to be crewed, would probably have been built in 1946 or 1947.

History:

Inspired by the "Ross und Reiter" Project ("Horse and Rider") another design for an un-manned, elongated EMW A-9 (based on the EMW A-8) evolved at the Peenemünde Test Center. The wings were to have a swept configuration and the two ram-jet engines (likewise planned for the "Ross und Reiter" Project) were to be mounted on opposite sides of the fuselage.
It is to be noted that this system wouldn't need a carrier rocket and could be started directly from a EMW A-4 ("V2") launch platform. Therefore, it is an educated guess, that this design is a test version of the planned "Reiter" ("Rider") rocket, which shows the small Canard Wings (to enhance the overall stability during flight), which were a characteristical feature of the "Reiter". Varnished with the IG-Farben-Stealth varnish named "Schornsteinfeger" its role would have been a reconnaissance airplane or a bomber.
Unfortunately, any data concerning the calculated performance, range, payload and intended combat role, as well as all construction blue-prints have been destroyed by the German scientists at the end of WW II, in order to avoid capture of these by the approaching Soviet troops.

Based on this I learned to create bomb bays and added only 4 bombs with an explosion scale of 1.5, a simple interior, since it is still a modified V-2 in the year 46/47 in the event that the war came to those dates. And with a maximum speed of more than 1900 km/h! .

How to use:

  • Button 1: Open/Close Cockpit
  • Button 2: Open/Close Bomb Bay
  • Button 3: Stabilizer

    @STENDEC In fact, that would not be strange, the "paper clip" operation took thousands of scientists and Nazi designs to the United States, based on these EMW and V-2, the well-known space shuttle was created if I'm not mistaken. The Kolkrabe is supposedly a space plane (I don't know what it could bomb at that point haha).

    This plane bears somewhat of a resemblance to the SR-71. Were the designers of the Blackbird were inspired by this plane?
