And I do not count those rather pathetic fake images of German disks all
over the web. So, given the above, WHY THE **** [1] should I believe your drivel?!? I believe in God, but everyone else has to present evidence. Andreas Well Andreas let's recount ALL the German wartime disc projects and see what conclusions we reach: 1) Arthur Sack A.S.6: Private circular aircraft, one prototype, constructed 1944, mostly made of wood with Me-108 cockpit and landing gear and Argus engine. Flown by Me-163 pilot at Brandis in 1944. A few hops and crashes due to misplacement of gear, low engine hp, and poor rear control surfaces. Cut up for firewood. Photos exist- all real and confirmed. 2) Fw VTOL: Circular VTOL aircraft patentented by Heinrich Focke, patented in 1939. None built but construction of test models done postwar. Photos exist of test models and theory of flight proven. None constructed. 3) Viktor Schauberger Repulsin A&B Models: Discoid liquid vortex motors. Repulsin A built 1940, tested until 1942. Repulsin B built in 1943. Both motors constructed at Mauthausen where the SS gave Schauberger 20-30 engineers to work with him. In 1944, Schauberger was released back to Austria. Photos exist of both motors- all real and confirmed. SS supposedly enlarged the motors and installed them in a version of Schriever's disc. Specifically, Miethe's design which flew in 1944. Two photos of this disc aircraft were published in an Italian magazine postwar. If you want them tell me and I'll post the links. After the war, Schauberger was approached by AVRO Canada for disc research- he declined. The US then pressured Schauberger to sign away his designs to a US consortium. He died in 1958, robbed of everything. 4) Rudolf Schriever FlugKreisel: Schriever was an employee for Heinkel that came up with a disc based on his observations of discus throwing in the 1936 Nazi Olympics. His design was a circular cockpit surrounded by a variable-pitch multi-bladed disc driven by 12 jet engines. On the underbody two more jet engines were used for control. Supposedly, his designs were taken by the SS (which actually DID control all of Germany's and the occupied nations patents). Schriever never had any control over his design which the SS assigned 3 scientists to work on: Habermohl, Miethe, and an Italian Dr. Belluzzo. Only Miethe's design is said to have been built and it did not resemble Schriever's original design due to the introduction of Schauberger's Repulsin powerplant becoming available. Again, the photos that exist are of Miethe's disc only. When Schriever died among his papers were various disc designs along with the original FlugKreisel. 5) BMW Flugelrad series: Disc jet-autogyros. Built at BMW Prague. All used BMW 003 jets for power which were fitted with a thrust deflector that reacted with another type of variable-pitch disc rotor surrounding a cockpit. The body housed the BMW 003 and the gear was fixed in the early models. Summary: BMW Flugelrad I V-1: one built, flew in 1943 at Prag-Kbely. Flew up 1m and 300m horizontally before making a rough landing. Highly unstable and difficult to control. BMW Flugelrad I V-2: one built, flew in 1944 at Neubiberg Aerodrome. Cockpit enlarged for two crew, rudder added,and semi-retractable gear. Did not fly well at all... tethered most of the time. BMW Flugelrad II V-1: one built, flew in 1945 at Prag-Kbely. Another jump at low altitude. All Flugelrads destroyed in April 1945. BMW Flugelrad II V-2: under construction, not finished BMW Flugelrad II V-3: Wind-tunnel model testing, none built BMW Flugelrad III: Design only for stratospheric recon No photos released yet. USAF admitted design in 1995... 6) Andreas Epps Omega Diskus: Disc with 6 fans for lift and four rotating Pabst ramjets around the ring. Four 1/10th scale models built and tested in 1944-45. Photos exist- real and proven. Design patented postwar in 1956, offered to USAF. Declined. He also had an earlier design powered by 2 jets on the body and two rotating jets above the dome- 1939, but not patented. 7) SS Schildkrote: Possibly the mystery Feuerball (aka Foo Fighter) menace that plagued the 415th NFS from Nov '44 to Apr '45 and then showed up in Japan (via submarine technology transfer in Aug '45). This one is a mystery as it has nothing to do with the Vril, Haunebu, RFZ or any other German disc design. A photo exists of poor quality but clearly seen is that it is unpiloted and has a large ring around the domed body with some form of rocket motor slung underneath and 3 fixed legs. Could be an aerial flak mine to be detonated in a bomber stream or a weapon that used Messerschmitt's electrostatic field device that disable aircraft motors. Unknown... 8) Thule Jenseitsflugmaschine (JFM): Not an aircraft but a gateway, portal, or some other form of otherworld travel machine. Disc form. Constructed in 1922 and tested until 1924. Hurriedly dismantled and stored in 1924 ending up at Messerschmitt's Augsburg facility. Fate unknown. Several photos exist. No determination on what the thing was except for Thule's claims of ET contact. 9) Freiberg crashed alien UFO: Disc, crashed in 1936. Supposedly recovered by SS and taken to Himmler's castle at Wewelsberg for reverse engineering (modern term). More likely investigated, taken apart and tested. Any results? Unknown. No photos. 10) Thule/Vril RFZ series: Disc aircraft with a form of electromagnetic propulsion. photos exist for RFZ 1,2,3,4,6 but subject to speculation. 11) Vril series: Same as above. photos exist for Vril 1,7,8 Odin and designs for Vril 2,9. 12) Thule/Vril Haunebu series: Larger, more powerful discs running off Thule Triebwerk engine. photos exist for Haunebu I, II, II-DoStra,but none for III or Andromeda Gerat 13) Fw 500: Disc jet fighter project with rotating wing blades. None built. 14) Henri Coanda Lenticular Disc: Lenticular disc. Coanda, like Schauberger, was arrested by the SS and forced to work on disc designs. Only models built before the end of the war. Design would have used Coandas suction effect and been powered by 12 internal Jumo 004 engines with forking nozzles pointing outward from the disc rim. Was deemed too costly to construct and abandoned. Design validated in 1949 in UK and patented in US in 1952 with none constructed. So Andreas there seems to be a lot of proof that the Nazis were engaged in disc research throughout the entire war. Many were just patents and projects but some flew and the most successful are also the most elusive. As you can see the SS working with Thule/Vril; forcing Coanda, Schauberger, Schriever, and scientists to perform; and stealing patents from various nations all played a part in the exotic disc construction programs. IMO, the victorious Allies only got the more primitive jet designs because that is the direction immediate postwar disc programs took. No equivalent to the RFZ, Vril, or Haunebu series came about until FFX propulsion became available in the late 80s or early 90s. The supposed NRO TR-3B ASTRA uses a similar engine to the Thule Triebwerke but is not a disc- its a black triangle. Rob p.s. In the list I did not include the Lippisch disc designs nor the Hortens because they were strictly postwar studies at the request of the US. |

Actually you have offered ZERO "proof" whatsoever! A lot of typing but NO
proof! post some links to these alleged photos NOT line drawings. Actually ALL German disc research comes from US research during the revolutionary war (the hetians found the objects and returned to Europe to tell the stories) engraved stone tablets exist, confirmed and verified. Why do you suppose these things never had wings? Because the Wright Brothers et al hadent devised them yet! Arther T. Farnsworth (not THAT Art Farnsworth) of Ooopseyepinchedda dookie Delaware devised 3 flying discs out of nothing more than wood and a kind of plaster and a complicated series of pullys and ropes connected to pedels in the "manbasket" as he called it. When operated the upper disc rotated clockwise while the lower disc rotated counterclockwise and created a great wind, or as Art called it "mother-in-law whooshing" . The wind was collected in a complicated series of wooden troughs which brought them to the bottom of the central area of the disc where upon they were re-ingested into the works and the wind speed increased. Unfortunatly Art always tired before he could develope enough thrust to actually lift off. This led to the Ox powered version and.................. "robert arndt" wrote in message om...

Flown by Me-163 pilot at Brandis in 1944. A few hops and crashes due to misplacement of gear, low engine hp, and poor rear control surfaces. Cut up for firewood. Photos exist- all real and confirmed. A simple disc shaped plan form, like any number of other ultra-short aspect ratio aircraft ideas out of the '30s. Very much not a "UFO" prototypes. ( a lot of silly mostly Sci-Fi style fantasy or, more likely, post war hoax stuff, though I would concede that there may well have been paper projects using all kinds of voodoo "science" among the particularly crackpot fringe of the Nazis) So Andreas there seems to be a lot of proof that the Nazis were engaged in disc research throughout the entire war.

You just retold the same old stories and didn't quote _a single_ source on any of the weirder parts. You only say "Photos exist" - where? And I mean genuine photos or negatives, which can be examined for fakery and not - as I already said - blurry digital images on less-than-reliable websites. And BTW, patents are no proof whatsoever that something can actually be built, let alone that it was actually built. You can patent almost everything as long as it's unique - you do _not_ have to show that your invention could actually work. Andreas |

Since everyone else is countering your ridiculous posts with fact, I'll go
to the base level: You're a profoundly myopic, ignorant and relatively stupid individual. You've immersed yourself in an opinion and spent your life supporting it, giving you detailed knowledge of names, numbers and timeframes, but absolutely no ability to assimilate anything else - like, oh, perspective or, oh, truth or, oh, reality. |

U2 stealthy? If they copied German stealth no wonder the LW lost - I
used to intercept U2s at operational height and I gotta tell you the weakest AI radar in the fleet, the ASG14T1, picked them up at 20 miles, the maximum range of its scope. Woo-woo alarm - On tinfoil hats! Walt BJ |

I see that no civil discussion can take place here despite the fact
that you "adults" claim to cherish military aviation. So why all the fuss about German aircraft, jets or otherwise? I live in America now but don't like the blatant arrogance snip, snip Every American I have had discussions with usually end up in disaster because the ignorant American can't get it through his thick skull snip, snip But ignorant Americans choose to believe lies instead. snip, snip Just think about it, don't rush to conclusions. I don't expect anyone to believe what I believe. This is America and you can disagree. But don't attack someone to do it. Just state why you don't think so. Well, if you want to debate with people, why not try leaving out claims of how uniformly ignorant and arrogant we are? In exchange, I'll try not to picture you roasting my relatives in an oven. Imagine for a brief second what would happen if the UFO that eventually lands is bearing the Iron Cross. Funny thing for a "German" to say - they never marked -any- aircraft with an "Iron Cross". Balkenk or Haken - crosses go on your airframe, but "Eisenkreuz" was solely an award for bravery. Little oops there, buddy...? Gordon |
