TYPE: Bomber Formation Destroyer (” Pulkzerstörer”) as as pickaback (“Mistel”) combination of a Ta 154 and a Fw 190
ACCOMMODATION: Pilot only in the Fw 190
POWER PLANT: Two Junkers Jumo 213E, rated at 1,750 h.p. (Ta 154) and BMW 801D-2, rated at 1,700 h.p. (Fw 190)
PERFORMANCE: Not available
COMMENT: Six Ta 154 pre-production aircraft should be adapted for the “Huckepack” composite role. The Ta 154 had an explosive charge in the forward fuselage and was piloted by a Focke Wulf Fw 190 . It was proposed that the Mistel combination – reportedly designated “Mistel 7” (“Mistletoe 7”) – should be aimed at the bomber formation, the pilot detached his aircraft from the superstructure and then detonated the charge by radio signal. None combination was realized.
POWER PLANT: Two Junkers Jumo 213E, rated at 1,750 h.p. each
PERFORMANCE: 404 m.p.h. at 23,250 ft.
COMMENT: The Ta 154V 15, the eighth pre-production Ta 154A-0, was equipped with the FuG 220 Lichtenstein SN-2 radar, fitted with a “Hirschgeweih” (Stag’s Antlers) antennae array
POWER PLANT: Two Junkers Jumo 213E, rated at 1,750 h.p. each
PERFORMANCE: 404 m.p.h. at 23,250 ft
COMMENT: This Ta 154V3, also designated Ta 154A-03/U1, was the first pre-production aircraft. It was equipped with a FuG 212 Lichtenstein C-1 radar, fitted with “Matratzen” (Mattress) antennae array. An order for 250 Ta 154A-1 fighters was placed, but only a few produced.
TYPE: Fast attack bomber, Night and Bad-weather Fighter. Project.
ACCOMMODATION: Pilot and Radar-observer
POWER PLANT: Junkers Jumo 211R, rated at 1,322 h.p. each
PERFORMANCE: 400 m.p.h. (estimated)
COMMENT: The Focke-Wulf Ta 211, designed by Prof. K. Tank and his team and what was named after the Jumo 211R engine to be used, was the first design what later became the Focke-Wulf Ta 154. The idea was to design a plane that was comparable or even better than the de Havilland “Mosquito”. In the form shown here, equipped with FuG 217 Neptune radar, it never flew (Ref.: 19).
POWER PLANT: Argus As 014 pulsejet, rated at 333 kp
PERFORMANCE: 388 m.p.h. at 19,700 ft
COMMENT: Blohm & Voss design for the “Miniaturjäger” (Miniature fighter) competition from November 1944. It called for a cheap and easy to built interceptor, powered by an Argus pulsejet. Two more companies, Heinkel and Junkers submitted their designs, Heinkel He162B Single Argus and Junkers EF 126. No orders were given, the program was cancelled in December 1944
POWER PLANT: Heinkel HeS 011 turbojet, rated at 1,500 kp
PERFORMANCE: Max speed 642 m.p.h., endurance 4 h with wing drop tanks (estimated)
COMMENT: Third and final design submitted by Blohm & Voss for the “Jägernotprogramm” (Fighter emergency competition) early 1945. Three prototypes were ordered, none realized.
POWER PLANT: Heinkel HeS 011 turbojet, rated at 1,500 kp
PERFORMANCE: Max. speed of +600 m.p.h. was estimated
COMMENT: Early Blohm & Voss design for the “Jägernotprogramm” (Fighter emergency competition) from spring 1945. Finally, a revised design, the Bv P. 212.03, was submitted.

COMMENT: This project, based at the earlier swept-back wing design Bv P. 211.01, was submitted for the “Volksjäger” (“Peoples fighter”) competition. Although judged as the best design the Heinkel He 162 was chosen because it was easier to built

POWER PLANT: 2 x Daimler-Benz DB 605, rated at 1,475 PS each
PERFORMANCE: Not available
COMMENT: This design for a tailless high-speed bomber is dated November 25, 1942 and originates from Dipl.-Ing. Josef Hubert, head of Lippisch’s aerodynamics section in Department “L”, as part of Messerschmitt Company. Two Daimler-Benz DB 605B engines provided power. One was mounted conventionally in the front of the fuselage the other was placed in the rear and drove a propeller via a short extension shaft. The wings were swept back at approximately 18 degrees and 38 degrees. Since this was a tailless design, there were no horizontal tail planes but a single fin and rudder was set at the rear and extended slightly below the fuselage. The two main landing gear legs were mounted near the wing’s leading edge, and retracted towards the fuselage. A single tail wheel retracted forward into the fuselage. The pilot sat in a cockpit placed midway along the fuselage. No armament was to be fitted at this stage, as it was felt the aircraft’s speed would be sufficient to prevent interception. As there was no internal bomb bay, the bomb load had to be carried externally. Although calculations were promising, this project remained on the drawing board (Ref. 16).
