Book Title:Horten Ho 229 Hitler's Stealth Fighter Intelligence Files
Author:BACM Research
Horten Ho 229 Hitler’s Stealth Fighter/Bomber & Other Horten Aircraft American & British Intelligence Documents 369 pages of United States and British intelligence documents covering the development of aircraft designed by the brothers Reimar and Walter Horten, including the Horten HO 229, archived on CD-ROM Recently this plane has also been called “Hitler’s Stealth fighter”, even though the plane’s stealth capabilities may have been incidental.An additional United States intelligence report included in this collection shows that the Japanese were developing technology that was much more explicitly stealth than what was applied to the Horten Ho 229.The Horten Ho 229 is known by several different names. The Horten Brothers called the plane the H.IX, so it is often called the Horten H.IX. Reichsluftfahrtministerium, the German Ministry of Aviation, gave the plane the identity Ho 229. At times it is referred to as the Gotha Go 229, due to the German manufacturer chosen to produce the plane, Gothaer Waggonfabrik. According to William Green, author of “Warplanes of the Third Reich,” the Ho 229 was the first “flying wing” aircraft with a jet engine. It was the the first plane with design elements, which can be referred to as stealth technology, to hinder the effectiveness of radar to detect the plane.In 1943, the head of the German Luftwaffe, Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring, presented to the German aircraft industry what is known as the “3 X 1000” goal. Goring wanted a plane that could carry 1000 kg of bombs (2,200 lb), with a range of 1000 km (620 miles), at a speed of 1000 km/h (620 mph). The Horten Brothers had been working on flying wing design gliders since the early 1930’s. They believed that the low-drag of the gliders they made in the past could be the basis for a craft that would meet Goring’s demands. The H.IX’s wings were made from two carbon injected plywood panels adhered to each other with a charcoal and sawdust mixture.In 1943, Göring awarded 500,000 Reich Marks to the Horten Brothers to build and fly several prototypes of the all-wing and jet-propelled Horten H IX. The Hortens test flew an unpowered glider, the prototype H.IX V1 in March of 1944. The aircraft did not look like any existing plane in use during World War II. It looked very similar to the modern American B-2 Bomber. Goering was impressed with the design and transferred it away from the Hortens to the German aerospace company Gothaer Waggonfabrik.At Gothaer the design went through several major improvements. The result was a jet powered prototype, the H.IX V2, which was first flown on February 2nd, 1945.Removed from the project, the Horten Brothers were working on the Horten H.XVIII, also called the Amerika Bomber. The Horten H.XVIII was an attempt to fulfill the German desire to build a bomber that could reach the United States. After several more test flights, the Ho 229 was added to the German Jäger-Notprogramm, or Emergency Fighter Program on March 12, 1945.Work on the next prototype version of the plane, the H.IX V3, ended when the American 3rd Army’s VII Corps on April 14, 1945 reached the Gotha plant in Friederichsroda.In 2008, Northrop-Grumman using available design plans built a full-size reproduction of the H.IX V3 using materials available in Germany in 1945. They also studied the only surviving parts of a Ho 229 V3, which were housed at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s Paul E. Garber Restoration and Storage Facility just outside of Washington DC in Suitland, Maryland.Engineers at Northrop wanted to find out if the German craft could actually be radar resistant. Northrop tested the non-flying reproduction at its classified radar testing facility in Tejon, California. During the testing the frequencies used by British radar facilities at the end of the war were directed at the reproduction. Tom Dobrenz, a Northrop Grumman stealth expert said about the H.IX, “This design gave them just about a 20 percent reduction in radar range detection over a conventional fighter of the day.”When combined with the speed of the H.IX, after detection by British homeland defense radar, the Royal Air Force would have had 8 minutes from the time of spotting the aircraft before it reached England, instead of the usual 19 minutes.While the design was proven to be stealthy, it has been argued that it was not designed to stealthy. There is no documented evidence in Germany that the design was intended to be what would later be called stealth.In an article written by Reimar Horten published in the May 1950 edition of the Argentine aerospace magazine Revista Nacional de Aeronautica, Reimar wrote, “…with the advent of radar, wood constructions already considered antique, turned into something modern again. As reflection of electric waves on metallic surfaces is good, such will be the image on the radar screen; on the contrary, on wood surfaces, that reflection is little, these resulting barely visible on the radar.”In the late 1970s and early 1980s, information began to leak to the media that the United States was working on aircraft with stealth technology.In 1983, Reimar Horten wrote in Nurflugel: Die Geschichte der Horten-Flugzeuge 1933-1960 (Herbert Weishaupt, 1983) that he had planned to combine a mixture of sawdust, charcoal, and glue between the layers of wood that formed large areas of the exterior surface of the H IX wing to shield, he said, the “whole airplane” from radar, because “the charcoal should absorb the electrical waves. Under this shield, then also the tubular steel [airframe] and the engines [would be] “invisible” [to radar]” (p. 136, author translation).By 1983, the basic elements of American stealth technology were already public knowledge. DOCUMENTSHORTEN TAILLESS AIRCRAFT – CADO INTELLIGENCE DEPARTMENTA 26 page report created in 1945 during World War II by the Intelligence Department of the Air Materiel Command titled, “Technical Report No. 76-45 on Horten Tailless Aircraft.”This report focuses on the H.X V2 and the H.VIII. The report contains information about other Horten aircraft dating back to 1931. The information in this report was collected by the U.S. Naval Technical Mission Europe from captured documents and partly from an informant who was a draftsman for the Horten Brothers. The informant is reported to have been in continuous close contact with the Horten Brothers, until the time of his capture. THE HORTON TAILLESS AIRCRAFT RAE REPORTThis 75 page, October 1945 report was produced by the British aircraft authority, Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough.It was produced from information gained in March 1945, soon after American troops took control of Bonn, by a Combined Intelligence Objectives Sub-Committee team visiting the original home of Horten Aircraft. Also from an interrogation in England of the Hortens performed by a party from RAE. This was followed by a RAE team visiting sites in Germany where Horten designed aircraft were assembled. They were tasked with returning to England any remaining aircraft. Finally, a RAE team returned to Germany to interview the brothers and others in the field of German aviation.COUNTER INTELLIGENCE CORPS FILES268 pages produced by the United States Army’s Counter Intelligence Corps (CIC) in the European Theater concerning the Horten Brothers. The files contain approximately 160 discernible and narrative pages concerning an investigation that began in 1947 to learn the whereabouts of the Horten Brothers and their current activity. The CIC interviewed scientists and individuals in the German aircraft industry to learn about the Hortens and their work. Some of those interviewed provided information concerning the work of the brothers during World War II. The CIC feared that the Hortens may have been working on developing aircraft for the Russians. A CIC agent finally found the brothers and interviewed them and to find about their current activity. A CIC agent wrote in his report concerning his contact with the Hortens, “Both brothers are exceedingly peculiar and can be easily classified as eccentric and individualistic.”EXTRA MATERIALIn additioinal to the 369 pages above, the CD-ROM includes:PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF THE HORTEN IV FLYING WINGA June 1960 38 page report of work done under the sponsorship of the United States Army Transportation Command and Office of Naval Research.TARGET REPORT – JAPANESE ANTI-RADAR COVERINGSAlso included in this collection is the 12 page Naval Technical Mission to Japan intelligence report, “Target Report – Japanese Anti-Radar Coverings.” The report shows that Japan was more on track in developing what would be called stealth technology. From the report’s introduction:”Japanese research in the field of anti-radar coverings was quite intense, and while several research products proved to be rather successful, according to the data presented, it was difficult to use, in practice. Such information as was available is included in this report, and was obtained from the Air Technical Intelligence Group, which initiated the request for interrogations, data and samples.”Japanese researchers were working on specifically creating a process to reduce radar detection. Their approach was to research rubber coverings containing carbon powders and anti-radar paint. The research ended with the end of World War II. Much of the documentation from the experiments was ordered destroyed by Japanese officials on August 15, 1945.The CD-ROM works with Windows and MAC
