I believe so, the Germans had some designs that were out of this world.Were a lot of our experimental aircraft post-WW2 created from captured German blue-prints and engineers?
Look at the chord width on that XB-15! Crazy.
And German aeronautical data had a huge impact on post-WWII designs...the B-47 ended up with swept wings, as did the F-86. The germans were working on a swing wing design, which ended up going into the X-5, which was the precursor to all the variable geometry a/c.
Well that's kinda a sucky job.
yeah, no shit. I wonder what nss you needed to get that job?
