Heinkel Wespe Prototype

1,114 Diam  8.4 years ago

Hello! Today I want to introduce you... the Heinkel Wespe! What's the Heinkel Wespe? Well, the Heinkel "Wespe" (Wasp) was designed in late 1944 at the Vienna Heinkel works as a VTOL interceptor. It was mainly to be used around factory complexes as a "point defense" interceptor, much like the Bachem Ba 349 "Natter". Unfortunately is not easy to land with this plane. Press 1 to activate the prop engine, 2 to activate the turbojet engine and 3 to activate the parachute for vertical landing (but is hard to land even with the parachute). For the takeoff I recommend you to use only the turbojet engine. The plane is still work in progress, so, forgive me for the many errors I made. Expect a better version in the future! Please, tell me how was your experience with this plane, so I can improve it!
