This
rotary wing glider consisted of the fuselage of a DFS.230 glider and
an Fa-223 rotor. With a gross weight of 905kg, it was to be hauled at
a speed of about 190km/h by a Ju-52, and would then be able to land
within not more than 18 metres. During World War II this glider was
never put to practical use, because a too low assault speed. |
