Default Aren't and his claims of German U2 invention

Radar scattering paint on the U2? I hope they got their money back
because it sure didn't work.

Robert Aren't recently made this claim:

"Laugh this off Tex. The US captured the DFS 228 rocket recon sailplane
in 1945 and took it back home. The aircraft was designed to fly at
(wait for this)... 80,000 ft and carry two Zeiss cameras (IR types
too).
So you think the U-2 came from US sources... uh, no. The funny thing
is the DFS even had a pressurized escape pod, something the U-2
to give maximum range.
