Wow. They should nickname that thing the Bee, or the Wasp. It's so dinky, look how small it is; still very powerful to be able to hover vertically. Pretty cool.

I like how they just "hang the airplane on a hook" at the end, like it was a garden tool in the shed or the garage. Honestly, though, that looks REALLY dangerous. If the engine loses power, or if the airplane loses balance during the hovering mode, the pilot would likely die. And ejection would be straight out sideways, at an altitude of about 50ft.

in what way??they didnt invent the turbo jet engine,and newton was english and bernoulii was well bernoulli lol,there are many rumours about nazi technology like the ufo which in theory is one big gyroscope rotating and using its own weight rotation as propulsion but other than tht i beg to differ and very few of these ideas ever came off the drawing board.

Harrier needs water which was limited to cool the vertical flight engine down. the X13 didnt.

the harriers water doesn't cool the engine, it increases the airs density, which increases thrust, handy when your fully loaded. besides, the harrier can land anywhere, not just on special towers

Nazis were investigating about a plane that could take off and land vertical. Only Nazi's prototypes were found by americans and later, americans developped and improved that type of plane. Read Wikipedia and you'll also be able to see pictures of US ships with Nazi planes, and other.

Oh, calm down. History wouldn't matter if we didn't build off of the work of others. Each person would have to reinvent the wheel for him/herself.
Germany experimented with it, and the U.S. double-checked to see if Germany had missed any potential. In the end, both projects failed anyway.

The use was so that aircraft would not need runways. The end of ww2 Germany was being bombed around the clock, including their airfields and a fighter plane that would not need a runway and be able to get airborne quickly was high on the list to put into production. Today it is no diferent, the ability to land in areas under fire without the expence of long strips that would be a target for terriorist etc.

It's true, and the only natural response to the collapse of the Third Reich. Operation Paperclip was a brilliant idea. I just wish they'd made more research into some of the more trippy ideas the scientists of das Vaterland, like say, the Silbervogel Amerikabomber - a plane that is designed to go above the stratosphere and then glide half way around the globe, "bouncing" on the upper layers of the atmosphere - brilliantly sci-fi-esque !

I would fly in in my first heartbeat after familiarization. And qualification check off.
Don't be a puss. Life is no fun if your not on the edge. Das Ist Wunderbar....
