Horten Ho 229 - Der legendäre Nurflügel

The Horten flying wings are, above all, one thing: legendary aircraft that fly without a fuselage or tail. With the development of the Ho 229, the Horten brothers embraced design principles that were far ahead of their time. The H IXV1 first flew as an unpowered glider in March 1944 – the concept culminated in the development of the US stealth B2 bomber in the late 1980s. The authors provide a comprehensive overview of the development and testing of the Horten Ho 229. Captivating graphics and design drawings, as well as impressive images, make this book a standard reference.
