Ac1-2-3 for bombs The Blohm & Voss P.170 was a three-engined fast bomber project by aircraft manufacturer Blohm & Voss for the Luftwaffe during the Second World War.[1]This plane is one of the aircraft designed by Richard Vogt in 1942. Although still rather odd-looking, the BV P.170 had a symmetrical basic structure unlike other Blohm & Voss projects of the time. The fuselage was cylindrical with the central engine located at the front end and the cockpit at the back end. The other two engines were located at both ends of the constant chord wing and their propellers turned in opposite directions. The aircraft was equipped with three powerful BMW 801D engines which were fed by separate 2,000 liter fuel tanks each.This plane was based on the Nazi propaganda concept for a Schnellbomber, a bomber so fast that it would be far faster than any enemy fighter aircraft threatening it. Therefore, providing it with defensive armament was deemed superfluous. Eventually, owing to other war-related priorities, as well as the new possibilities offered by the development of turbojets, the BV P.170 did not go into production.[2]
