Someone Should make the Horten XVIII - Dangerousbuzz934 - 04.06.2010
The Horten XVIII is the bomber version of the horten 229 i just thought it could be cool, i forgot but if Germany did make the Atomic bomb would the Horten XVIII be able to carry it?

It is cool
But sadly that design never made it off the napkin it was scribbled on
Let alone a blue print
Let alone a prototype
Let alone production
In short a dream that remained a dream
If you like flying wings that could carry a payload across the pond
Than one should request the Northrop YB-35
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YB-35
In that it did make it off the napkin it was scribbled on
Onto a blue print
Onto a prototype that first flew in June 1946
Onto limited production as the jet version YB-49
And some 60 years later it's design was the foundation for the Northrop B2 bomber design
The YB-35, YB-49, and B2 all have the same wingspan of 172 ft (52.2 m)
In short a dream that became reality

Nope
That and Germany was father from making the bomb than this wing

That's true but even though Northrop was experimenting with flying wings before WWII, we on the Internet know all aeronautical advances owe their existence to German aviation from the war years. Perhaps Northrop merely copied them from his future. Maybe he got a hold of a German time machine and traveled back to the future in a Mercedes Benz with der kaput kapacitor?

Dupe: abreviation of the adjective

And.... did you notice the placement of the word? "dupe requests" meanning "dupe" applied to requests not to him.
