Hitlers Kamikaze Doodlebug

Secret variant of Hitler's V1 was designed with a cockpit to let pilot fly it to British targets then bail out which would have been almost impossible as the airspeed would have been 400-500 mph
The Fieseler Fi 103 Reichenberg


The Fi 103 was designed to be air launched from a Heinkel 111

Then guided to its target
Hitler hoped these would help destroy London during World War II but did not get enough volunteers

Only six of them exist today, including the one that has undergone restoration. The other five are in museums in France, Holland, Canada, the US and Germany

The fully restored Doodlebug is due to go on display at the Lashenden Air Warfare Museum in Ashford Kent
Could they have changed the direction of the war

All Hitler needed was some Japanese pilots.

I'm not an expert on WW2 or anything, but even if he did destroy London, wouldn't the US destroy the Germans anyway?

is that the beginnings of a gyrocopter or helicopter??

i thought sikorsky made those in 47 or 52?

Hanna Reitsch successfully flew this V1 varient

She also tested a cockpit-equipped V-1 rocket and the insanely dangerous rocket-powered Me-163 Komet

She was also the only civilian and only woman to receive the Knight's Cross with Diamonds

Don't think so.
The Germans didn't have to suicide to stop the B17s.
So that is a lie as is the Foo being a hoax or from outer space.
Also the miss information about the Foo knocking out engines or radar to
stop the missions. The mission was stopped by the Foo revolving around
the ships exploding the bombs. The German air force was defeated yet
the bombing missions to factories that made Foo parts were stopped.
Ed: So in my opinion the Kamikaze stories are misinformation.
The Foo had no armaments cause they would explode.
ED: We don't want to go too far into saying Mr H did these things as
the Foo technology is still secret and backed by a world wide effort
to keep it that way especially those who make guns and ammo.
