UFOs ARRIVED FROM THE THIRD REICH?
With the help of "flying saucers," Hitler hoped to turn the tide of the war.
|
In the 30s and 40s of the last century, Nazi Germany led intensive work on creating disc-shaped aircrafts. The manufacture of assemblies and parts was entrusted to different factories, so that no one could guess their true destiny.
"You should not have taken up this topic," said the German friend Norbert Fraissler, to whom I turned for help. - Nonsense all this! The Nazis had nowhere to go. So they came up with unusual projects to intimidate their opponents.
The losing country had neither resources nor time. But Hitler seriously counted on the emergence of a "miracle weapon", which will change the course of history. It is no coincidence that the special services of all countries of the anti-Hitler coalition launched a real hunt for Nazi aircraft engineers.
Works on the "flying saucers" were conducted, mainly, in Austria and Czechoslovakia. It is alleged that the first "wheel with a wing" of engineers Rudolf Shriver and Otto Habermol appeared in 1940. Its first flight in early February 1941, the "wheel" made under Prague - from a strictly guarded airfield. This machine is considered the world's first vertical take-off aircraft. It had piston and liquid rocket engines. And the design resembled a bicycle wheel: around the cabin a ring with wide "spokes" - blades rotated. Adjusting their position, it was possible to carry out a vertical or horizontal flight. The pilot was first placed in the sitting position, then - to reduce the resistance - in the recumbent. But the main problem that engineers faced was to ensure the stability of the structure. Violation of alignment, even the most insignificant, led to a strong vibration, from which the device could crumble. After several accidents, the first model was sent to scrap metal, but it proved to Luftwaffe officials that "flying saucers" can fly.
The work continued. In the end, at the factory "Cesco Morava", Shriver and Gabermol built a 42 m diameter disk. As a motor, a Walter reaction apparatus was used, working on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. A wide flat ring rotated around the domed cockpit of the pilot, driven by controlled nozzles. On February 14, 1945, this structure gained altitude of 12,400 m, the horizontal speed of its flight was about 200 km / h. According to other sources, this disc was tested in late 1944 in the area of Spitsbergen, where it crashed ... It is interesting that in 1952 there were actually found fragments of disk-shaped apparatus, as the newspapers wrote about. The post-war fate of the designers of disco is unknown. Otto Gabermol seems to have got into the USSR. And Shriver died after the war in a car accident in the United States.
In the 42 - 43-m years he was tested at the Peenemünde training ground. This "plate" had gas turbine engines Jumo-004B. Developed a horizontal speed of about 700 km / h and sat at a speed of 60 km / h.
One of the prisoners of concentration camp-4A in Peenemünde recounted:
- In September 1943, I happened to witness a curious case ... The four workers pushed out to the concrete area near the hangar a round device that had a transparent cabin in the center and leaned on small wheels. A small man waved his hand, and a strange device, cast in the sun with silver metal and shuddering from every gust of wind, made a hissing sound and broke away from the concrete platform. It hovered somewhere at a height of five meters. For some time the device rocked like "vanki-vstanka", then the boundaries of its contours gradually blurred. They seemed to be out of focus.
Then the apparatus jumped and snapped and began to gain altitude. The flight, judging by the wiggle, was unstable. And, when a strong gust of wind came, the device turned in the air and began to fall. I was showered with a stream of mixture of burning, ethyl alcohol and hot air. There was a sound of a blow and a crunch of breaking details ... The pilot's body was hanging limply from the cockpit. Immediately, fragments of plating, filled with fuel, were enveloped in a blue flame. A still hissing jet engine was uncovered - and immediately collapsed: apparently, a tank of fuel exploded ...
Another 19 former soldiers and officers of the Wehrmacht testified about this apparatus. In the fall of 1943, they observed the test flights of some "metal disk 5-6 m in diameter with a teardrop-shaped booth in the center." Drive Belonce
But Belonets is considered the most unusual model. He received his name on the name of the chief designer - Italian specialist in the design of steam turbines Giuseppe Belonets, who proposed a scheme of a disk aircraft with straight-flow engines. He was helped by Richard Meite and already known to you by Rudolf Shriver. The original Victor Schauberger vortex engine was used. The principle of its operation was based on the use of energy explosions, and as a fuel used water. The case of the disk was ringed with 12 inclined jet engines, which cooled the Schauberger engine and, sucking in air, created a vacuum over the apparatus, which promoted its rise with less effort.
I found the grandson of Victor Schauberger-Joerg in the Austrian town of Lauffen-Bad. He is the keeper of the archives and heritage of his ancestor.
"Unfortunately, there are no documents on the Belonets disk construction in our archive," Jörg told me. "But I know that my grandfather was aware of the work on this project from the SS." Allegedly, a disk was built, with the creation of which the grandfather's development was also used.
The disk was built at the plant in Breslau (now - Wroclaw). It had a diameter of 68 m and a climb rate of 302 km / h. On February 19, 1945, this apparatus made its first and last flight. In three minutes, it reached a height of 15,000 meters and allegedly developed a speed of 2,200 km / h with horizontal movement. The disc could hang in the air, fly back and forth almost without turning, and landed on folding racks. When Breslau was surrounded by Soviet troops, the Chief of Staff of the Supreme High Command of the German Armed Forces, Field Marshal Keitel ordered the unit to be blown up so that it would not go to the Communists.
Unfortunately, in addition to the diagrams, drawings and one videotape with the Zimmermann disc, no more documents in Germany have survived. All this, of course, smacks of mysticism. But there is no smoke without fire? It's no secret that the Soviet ballistic missile R-1 was born only after we got into our hands a fascist V-2 rocket. It is well known that in the postwar period, both Americans and our engineers built disc-shaped apparatuses. About these projects, we will talk in detail in one of the nearest issues of "bbw".
