History of the Focke Wulf Triebflugel

The Focke Wulf Triebflugel was a German concept for a VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) jet interceptor, designed at the end of World War II. Its unusual structure, with three rotary wings housing jet engines, was intended to enable vertical takeoff and landing as well as very rapid climbs to high altitudes, making it an excellent interceptor to combat Allied bombing raids. Despite advanced documentation being developed, the project did not reach prototype phase before the war ended. The Triebflugel remains a symbol of German aviation engineering and one of the most distinctive conceptual machines of the war.
