Horton Ho 229 V3, captured and shipped back to the States. This is the one and only time it was assembled. When captured in Germany it was incomplete, the fuselage/centre section was many miles away from the outer wing panels when discovered by US troops. The Ho 229 was the only jet powered flying wing that actually flew during the war.

The second prototype, V2, was destroyed and the pilot killed on its second powered flight. This is the third prototype and was taken to America under Operation Paperclip. It was the world's first stealth aircraft, although its stealth capabilities were only discovered after computer modelling in the 21st century. For more, see my Facebook group - Eagles Of The Reich

This is freaking cool! Is being carrier planes the only common thread? They weren't made by the same company, so I guess so. USN Aviation baby!! 🤘

Lt (JG) Alexander 'Alex' Vraicu pictured with his mounts during (upper, 'White 19'), and after (lower '32') the 'Great Marianas Turkey Shoot' in 1944. Vraicu was Butch O'Hare's wingman early on and served on CVL-22 USS Independence, CV-9 USS Essex, CV-11 USS Intrepid, and CV-16 USS Lexington. His 'Turkey Shoot' day came while flying from CV-16, downing 6 in 8 minutes. He finished the war as the 4th ranked Navy ace with aerial 19 kills.
