Description

Amazing triple-winged ramjet-powered rocket interceptor. Never built due to the war ending, this aircraft got as far as wind tunnel testing and showed promise as a cheap, fast homeland defense interceptor. Had it been built it would probably have terrified its pilot as much as the enemy, being impossible to bail out of. The whirling mass of its huge ramjet-tipped propeller wouldn't have done it any favors as far as maneuverability was concerned either as gyroscopes don't like being disturbed much and when they are they tend to move in an entirely different direction to the one desired. One can imagine the prospective victim/pilot of the Triebflugel studying the pilot's notes for the Sopwith Camel in order to get some insight into gyroscopic precession and combat tactics...
