X PLANES OF THE THIRD REICH SERIESAn Illustrated Series on Germany’s Experimental Aircraftof World War IIThe Focke-Wulf Ta 183 geheim projekt came from the mind of aircraft design genius Hans Multhopp. With its single HeS 011A turbojet engine and signature Multhopp T-tail it had been selected for immediate series production by the RLM in March, 1945, and Focke-Wulf officials believed that the 183s maiden flight might occur as quickly as June, 1945. Post-war the Ta 183 became the mother of the Soviet MiG-15 and the Argentine IAe 33 Pulqui II which Kurt Tank built for President Juan Pern.
