Had a family friend in Army Intelligence during WWII, he would neither confirm nor deny their existence but I found these in his photo collection...Instead of Germany putting all that effort into building B-29s, why didn't they just deploy a fleet of Do-STRA/Haunebu flying saucers?
Surely they would have cost about the same to make and but had better range...
Greetings Fastmongrel,
Unfortunately I can't understand what's happening. I've looked at the post on a couple devices and it works fine. Sorry.

Here's a handy spotter's guide of the various Nazi UFOs.Had a family friend in Army Intelligence during WWII, he would neither confirm nor deny their existence but I found these in his photo collection...
The Luftwaffe did use long-range recon types in the North Atlantic on a regular basis like the Fw200 and the Ju290.Slipping a recon plane through could, and did, happen.
Do know when the pilot armour was installed in the Vr.1 ?Here's a handy spotter's guide of the various Nazi UFOs.
It's important to know which was which!

Both types were shot down on occasion by Sea Hurricanes.The Luftwaffe did use long-range recon types in the North Atlantic on a regular basis like the Fw200 and the Ju290.
That's what I like about this place, you learn something new every day.Both types were shot down on occasion by Sea Hurricanes.
The armour was fitted at the same time as the pulse guns and the GPS. It was a mid life upgrade
It is impossible to tell how many times they tried and failed but according to Wiki Sea Hurricanes from an escort carrier took down 3 Ju 290s in a day and Fw200s were shot down by everything from Winkle Brown in a Martlet to a Lockheed Hudson, you didn't need stellar performers based on fleet carriers to make a difference. Many Fw200s landed or crashed in Spain and Portugal.That's what I like about this place, you learn something new every day.
