Hi folks,
Sorry, hoping as ever that this isn't old news, but just a note or two of caution, if only to explain why I put this under ‘Theoretical and Speculative’:
*** I stress that I am very sceptical about just how much firm historical evidence there is for several of the projects in the video linked to here. ***
*** Many contributors to this forum who must surely be regarded as word-class aviation experts (which of course I most definitely am not) seem very far from convinced that there ever were any plans for piloted or three-stage V2 derivatives. ***
*** Regardless of the ‘historicity’ of the flying objects below, I stress that any inaccuracies in the file-names are due to me – corrections of course welcome. ***
However, the images themselves in the snapshots below seem often of fairly good quality and I haven’t seen the majority of them on any other web-site.
Anyway, with those caveats in place, here are some images.
Thanks and all best, 'Wingknut'.
