The combination was also referred to officially as the "Vater und Sohn" Father and Son after a popular German strip cartoon, but Mistel was to become a generic term for the lower component of all such combinations, irrespective of the type of aircraft involved, and when, in July , instructions were given to Junkers to proceed with the conversion of 15 Ju 88A airframes for Mistel use, the weapon was allocated the code name Beethoven.

While Mistel pilots claimed hits, none of these match Allied records; they may have been made against the hulk of the old French battleship Courbet , which had been included as a component of the Mulberry harbour at Arromanches and specially dressed up as a decoy by the Allies. A second opportunity to use the Mistels, in Scapa Flow in , was abandoned after the sinking of the German battleship Tirpitz led to the departure of all of the Royal Navy 's major surface units from the target.

  • 90 Years of Flight Test in the Miami Valley
    in the MiamiValley History Offke Aeronautical Systems Center Air Force Materiel Command ii FOREWORD Less than one hundred years ago, Lord Kelvin, the most prominent scientist of his generation, remarked that he had not “the smallest molecule of faith’ in any form of flight other than ballooning. Within a decade of his damningly pessimistic statement, the Wright brothers were routinely puttering through the skies above Huffman Prairie, pirouetting about in their frail pusher biplanes. They were there because, unlike Kelvin, they saw opportunity, not difficulty, challenge, not impossibility. And they had met that challenge, seized that opportunity, by taking the work of their minds, transforming it by their hands, making a series of gliders and, then, finally, an actual airplane that they flew. Flight testing was the key to their success. The history of flight testing encompassesthe essential history of aviation itself. For as long as humanity has aspired to fly, men and women of courage have moved resolutely from intriguing concept to practical reality by testing the result of their work in actual flight. In the eighteenth and nineteenth century, notable pioneers such asthe French Montgolfier brothers, the German Otto Lilienthal, and the American Octave Chanute blended careful study and theoretical speculation with the actual design, construction, and testing of flying vehicles. Flight testing reallycame ofage with the Wright bro!hers whocarefullycombined a thorough understanding of the problem and potentiality of flight with-for their time-sophisticated ground and flight-test methodolo- gies and equipment. After their success above the dunes at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina on December 17,1903, the brothers determined to refine their work and generate practical aircraft capable of routine operation.

  • Air Force Next-Generation Bomber: Background and Issues for Congress
    Air Force Next-Generation Bomber: Background and Issues for Congress Jeremiah Gertler Specialist in Military Aviation December 22, 2009 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL34406 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Air Force Next-Generation Bomber: Background and Issues for Congress Summary As part of its proposed FY2010 defense budget, the Administration proposed deferring the start of a program to develop a next-generation bomber (NGB) for the Air Force, pending the completion of the 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) and associated Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), and in light of strategic arms control negotiations with Russia. The Administration’s proposed FY2010 budget requested no funding specifically identified in public budget documents as being for an NGB program. Prior to the submission of the FY2010 budget, the Air Force was conducting research and development work aimed at fielding a next-generation bomber by 2018. Although the proposed FY2010 defense budget proposed deferring the start of an NGB program, the Secretary of Defense and Air Force officials in 2009 have expressed support for the need to eventually start such a program. The Air Force’s FY2010 unfunded requirements list (URL)—a list of programs desired by the Air Force but not funded in the Air Force’s proposed FY2010 budget—includes a classified $140-million item that some press accounts have identified as being for continued work on a next-generation bomber.

  • CRUISE MISSILE THREAT Volume 2: Emerging Cruise Missile Threat
    By Systems Assessment Group NDIA Strike, Land Attack and Air Defense Committee August 1999 FEASIBILITY OF THIRD WORLD ADVANCED BALLISTIC AND CRUISE MISSILE THREAT Volume 2: Emerging Cruise Missile Threat The Systems Assessment Group of the National Defense Industrial Association ( NDIA) Strike, Land Attack and Air Defense Committee performed this study as a continuing examination of feasible Third World missile threats. Volume 1 provided an assessment of the feasibility of the long range ballistic missile threats (released by NDIA in October 1998). Volume 2 uses aerospace industry judgments and experience to assess Third World cruise missile acquisition and development that is “emerging” as a real capability now. The analyses performed by industry under the broad title of “Feasibility of Third World Advanced Ballistic & Cruise Missile Threat” incorporate information only from unclassified sources. Commercial GPS navigation instruments, compact avionics, flight programming software, and powerful, light-weight jet propulsion systems provide the tools needed for a Third World country to upgrade short-range anti-ship cruise missiles or to produce new land-attack cruise missiles (LACMs) today. This study focuses on the question of feasibility of likely production methods rather than relying on traditional intelligence based primarily upon observed data. Published evidence of technology and weapons exports bears witness to the failure of international agreements to curtail cruise missile proliferation. The study recognizes the role LACMs developed by Third World countries will play in conjunction with other new weapons, for regional force projection. LACMs are an “emerging” threat with immediate and dire implications for U.S. freedom of action in many regions .

  • A52 Mosquito Light Bomber
    A52 Mosquito Light Bomber The de Havilland DH 98 Mosquito was one of the greatest combat Initial delays in production were due to the difficulties of importing aircraft of World War II. Originally conceived as a fast, unarmed, light engines, tools and priority equipment from de Havilland in Great Britain bomber that would be able to outfly fighters, the lightweight, all-wood and Canada. Soon after production began, the manufacturer discovered construction “Mossie” first flew on Nov. 25, 1940, and had a top speed an issue with wing assembly, and the first 50 sets of wings required of almost 400 mph. Mosquitoes were built in several different versions, modification. This, and the discovery of flutter issues, further delayed including fighter-bombers (FBs), photo-reconnaissance, day and night production, which eventually amounted to just 75 airplanes being built bombers, and long-range day and night fighters. between March 1944 and May 1945.

    Parasite Fighters Parasite aircraft – are there to enhance the task of the parent – that continues with its own mission – which may be only to be a mother ship. Composite Aircraft – the part that detaches then completes the mission. (Not to be confused with more modern usage of composite construction – of different materials.) The Short-Mayo composite project, co-designed by Mayo and Shorts chief designer Arthur Gouge, comprised the Short S.21 Maia,(G-ADHK) which was a variant of the Short "C-Class" Empire flying-boat fitted with a trestle or pylon on the top of the fuselage to support the Short S.20 Mercury(G-ADHJ).

One way of defence has often been considered – a fighter that rides along hitched to the parent aircraft – which can detach while airborne and defend the larger aircraft and perhaps re-attach in flight. Other missions for parasites have included reconnaissance and ground attack. Here I an concentrating on manned aircraft.

  • Junkers Ju 288
    Was Sie schon immer mal wissen wollten – oder die letzten Geheimnisse der Luftfahrt Eine lose Folge von Dokumentationen vom Luftfahrtmuseum Hannover-Laatzen Stand Herbst 2017 - Seite 1 Diese Dokumentationen werden Interessenten auf Wunsch zur Verfügung gestellt und erscheinen in einer losen Folge von Zeiträumen.Compiled and edited by Johannes Wehrmann 2017 Source of Details “Bredow-web.de”,“Das Flugzeug-Archiv”,FliegerWeb, Wikipedia Junkers Ju 288 AIC = 2.032.2951.20.32 Die Junkers Ju 288 war die Neuentwicklung eines Kampfflugzeuges der deutschen Luftwaffe im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Die Maschine wurde im Rahmen des „Bomber B“-Programms neu entwickelt und sollte ursprüng- lich als Standardbomber Flugzeuge wie die Ju 88, Do 17 und He 111 ablösen. Der „Bomber B“ sollte in der Lage sein, eine Bombenlast von 4000 kg mit 600 km/h über 1500 bis 2000 km zu transportieren. Es kam zu keiner Serienfertigung, es wurden nur 23 Stück dieses Typs hergestellt. Ein Teil der Entwicklungsarbeit konnte bei der Ju 388 dann aber doch noch genutzt werden. Konstruktion Die Junkers Ju 288 war als zweimotoriger Schulterdecker mit einziehbarem Fahrwerk und zunächst drei, später vier Mann Besatzung ausgelegt. Als Antrieb waren zwei wassergekühlte 24-Zylinder-Motoren des Typs Junkers Jumo 222 vorgesehen. Aufgrund von Problemen bei der Entwicklung des Jumo 222 wurden auch andere Motoren verwendet. Der Erstflug erfolgte Ende 1940 mit BMW-801-Motoren. Für den in der Literatur genannten Erstflugtermin der Ju 288 V1 (29. November 1940) gibt es keinen quellenmäßigen Nachweis. Nachweisbar ist, dass das Flugzeug am 17. Januar 1941 geflogen ist und am 2. März 1941 verbrannte. Bei der Entwicklung der Ju 288 im Rahmen des Bomber-B-Programms handelte es sich wahrscheinlich um das teuerste Entwicklungsvorhaben der Luftwaffe.
