Messerschmitt Me P.1101 vs Focke-Wulf Ta 183 Huckebein [quadruple set]

The Messerschmitt P.1101 is a project of a German fighter jet engine in a mid-wing configuration with oblique wings and a classic tail. The plane was to be a fighter and a battlefield close reconnaissance machine. The Junkers Jumo 004B engine was planned to be used as the propulsion unit, although ultimately the aircraft was to use the Heinkel-Hirth He-S 011A engine. After the war, the only surviving specimen fell into the hands of the Americans in Oberammergau, who thoroughly examined it. He became the basis for the creation of the Bell X-5 aircraft. Technical data: length: 9.1 m, wingspan: 8.2 m, height: 2.8 m.

The Focke Wulf Ta183A ‘Huckebein‘ is a German jet fighter with a mixed metal and wooden structure, in a mid-wing arrangement with sloped wings from the end of World War II. The contract for its production was signed in February 1945, and the first plane was to be ready in September of the same year. The end of hostilities thwarted these plans. Moreover, none of the prototypes were completely finished. In the serial version, it was planned that the drive would be a Heinkel Hirth HeS 011A jet engine. The Ta-183 was also supposed to use not only fixed on-board weapons, but also X-4 or Hs-298 air-to-air missiles. After the war, the Ta-183 became the inspiration for the Mig-15 and exerted a strong influence on the designers of the Swedish SAAB 29 Tunnan aircraft. Technical (theoretical) data: length: 9.2 m, wingspan: 10 m, height: 3.86 m, maximum speed: 955 km / h, climb speed: 20.4 m / s, maximum ceiling 14000 m, armament: fixed-4 MK108 cannons cal. 30 mm, suspended - up to 500 kg of load.
