During WW2 the Nazis were so impressed by the B-17 they designed their own
version. I think they only built 2. If memory serves it was called the
Ou812.

The only known picture of it flying has for some reason shown up on a
military
humour site.

You are gonna be sorry you did this when someday in the future our resident
Germany-did-everything-first-and-better clown tosses this back as "proof"
that the Nazis were really ahead of the power curve when it comes to using
canards...
