The Ta-183 is an unrealistic project????
hock: Yea like the Me-163 the Me-262 the Go-229 (unrealistic flying wing concept) or the V-2.
Really unrealistic for 1944/45 :lol:
Other "ridiculous" projecsts:
by the way really similar to
P1101 german project
compare designs
and finally my favourite :lol:

I think you'll find that a lot of those
would be impossible, considering the composite materials necessary to prevent fatal structural failures were't available until well after the war. The Ta-183 is one of the shining examples of this, the tail unit would need a total redesign if it were to be made of conventional materials

The fun part is that they tried bomber dockings with F-84's on B-36's and B-29's and then before that they had tried hooking up a P-80 to the back of a B-29. It must have been a lot of fun (pain) to dock with the bombers.

Sorry BERSERKER, but ME p1101 realy not a "ridiculous" projet, some prototypes really exist, and US captured then.
"The Me P.1101 V1 prototype was of duralumin fuselage construction, retained the outer wing section of the Me-262 and as mentioned previously, the wing sweep could be adjusted on the ground from 30, 40, to 45 degrees, making it a forerunner of later variable-geometry designs. The tandem, fuselage mounted intakes of the preliminary designs were replaced by a single nose intake, and the canopy became a bubble design, which afforded better all-around vision than the initial integrated canopy offered. The production prototype also incorporated a more conventional T-tail design, which was constructed out of wood and remained mounted on the tapered tail boom. The tricycle undercarriage consisted of a steerable, rear retracting nose wheel and wing root mounted main gear, which was forward retracting. The prototype was fitted with a Jumo 004B jet engine, which could easily be replaced with the more powerful He S 011 in subsequent full production versions. In addition, the production model was to be equipped with a pressurized cockpit and armored canopy."

Go-229

And realy "ridiculous" it

You misunderstood me mmielli
, I was being ironic, the Go-229, the Me-163, the Me-262, He-162, Ta-183, P1101 , the V-1 and V-2, the type XXI and XXIII submanrines, these weapons, ahead of its time, and of course, were not ridiculous :wink: .
Moreover, even thinking, something like S
