Auto Credit Based on Allstar's CHALLENGE: WW2 Fighter Replica

This WWII German flying wing fighter was way ahead of its time. Only 3 prototypes were built. One crashed on the third test flight and the other two were captured by advancing US forces. Rumor has it that the designers experimented with special coatings to reduce the aircraft's radar signature.

    @ Allstarship, you are right, I think my wing area is too small and the dihedral is too high.
