Henschel Hs293A (two for the price of one, 1 guided, 1 a cleaver)

230k RamboJutter  5.7 years ago

So i was asked to make a cleaver guided Henschel Hs293, see the one with the red bit, i also thought it would be a shame not to have it radio controlled like it was originally intended (the green tab one). Wiki bit: The Hs 293 project was started in 1940, based on the "Gustav Schwartz Propellerwerke" pure glide bomb that was designed in 1939. The Schwartz design did not have a terminal guidance system; instead, it used an autopilot to maintain a straight course. It was intended to be launched from a bomber at sufficient distance to keep the aircraft out of range of anti-aircraft fire. A Henschel team, under Dr. Herbert Wagner,[1] developed it the following year by adding a Walter HWK 109-507 rocket engine underneath, providing 590 kg (1,300 lb)[2] thrust for ten seconds. This allowed the bomb to be used from a lower altitude and at an increased range. Some examples used the BMW 109-511 of 600 kg (1,323 lb) thrust.[2] The first flight attempts took place between May and September 1940, with unpowered drops from Heinkel He 111 medium bombers used as carrier aircraft; the first Walter rocket motor-powered tests had been conducted by the end of 1940.
