Horten Ho X (V2-N) 'Luftteufel'

47.8k Phantomium  7.3 years ago

After the Horten Ho X project proved to be unreliable, scientists had to pull it off the production line and redesign the aircraft.

Five months later, somewhere in late November 1945, the Horten brothers came up with the V2. Featuring six Ruhrstahl X-4 missiles mounted under the wings and two MK 103B 30mm cannons, the Horten Ho X V2, which will later be known as "Luftteufel" due to it's insane maneuvrability, it showed clear improvements over it's predecessor. This variant, the V2N, was specifically made for night operation.

I tried to make it look cool while keeping it under 200 parts (in order for mobile users to not blow their smartphones ofd). Kinda built it in a hurry due to two other aircraft that are scheduled to come by the end of this week.

    @SimpleFlow It's not only for you.
    I've got 2 unfinished projects and a big, big bomber to upload. Of course, after the cooldown will end.

    You wouldn't upload them as unlisted for me to fly them around right?

    @SimpleFlow I've got an entire file filled with them. This one, however, isn't one of them.

    @AudioDud3 They definitely did! The Nazi Nightfighters used it as radar!

    @AudioDud3 Well, they had already tested radio systems on other aircraft. Given the time this would've rolled on the battlefield, they might've tried mounting radio systems on jets too.
