Dragonfly

The world's first attempt at perfecting a true, tail-sitting vertical take off and landing (VTOL) interceptor flying machine - Focke-Wulf's "Triebflugeljager," or thrust wing fighter project of 1944. The Triebflugeljager was not intended to be an air-superiority dogfighter, but a bomber killer rising straight up from its hiding place in a forest or urban area to meet and attack Allied bombers head on. Highly unusual, then as well as today, the "Triebflugeljager" was an amazing prototype.Myhra, David is the author of 'Dragonfly', published 2007 under ISBN 9780764318771 and ISBN 0764318772.
