This is the text, what I sometimes wanted to write for explaining, why Nazi wonder weapons ("Wunderwaffe")  were the biggest flops in history? There is one very good reason, why those weapons ever got effect against allied forces, and that was that they were produced so little number, that they would not have any kind of effect against allied forces. Another reason for those flops was that they were produced and drawn by very big hurry, what caused the situation, that there were many mistakes in planning and production of those in paper very good airplanes and submarines. One of the best examples of the good ideas, but in real life, bad and dangerous product was Heinkel 117 "Greif" what motors had got too little coolers, and they made that airplane very easy to burn in airborne.


And because of the Nazi-bureaucracy, nobody changed the drawings, and production of the aircraft, what had two V-motors with a double number of cylinders, but the coolers were metered for half size motors continued even if many of those aircraft were actually started to burn in airborne because of engine overheating. Also, the famous V-2 rockets had one problem, those rockets were actually planned for scientific purposes, and that made them very difficult to a product. The missiles must be the large number, and that's why almost every missile in the world uses solid fuel because that allows manufacturing a large number of missiles. V-2 could be effective if there would be used biological or chemical warhead, but luckily those plans were disbanded.



When we are talking about "real weapons" the problem with those real weapons was that they were ineffective against allied forces. And because of Focke-Wulff and Messerschmitt fighters problems with allied aircraft the Nazi government wanted to make new kind of weapons. One of those weapons what were effective was FX-1400 ("Fritz X"), what was first used in 1943 against Italian battleships and one of the DO-17Z-3 bombers was able to get direct hit to one Italian battleships gun tower. One thing makes me think, that maybe some of those problems with bombers were caused in purpose are involving in this weapon. Why the survivability of those bombers didn't make better by using laughing gas or some other oxygenase in the motors of those bombers, what would allow them to fly higher altitude. And avoiding the air defense and some fighters of allied forces.


That was shown how effectively guided missiles could be worked, but the problem was that the Luftwaffe had to transfer the production of bombers to the fighters, and that caused the loss of a number of bombers, what had the capacity to carry those glide bombs. Also, the training of airmen to use that weapon was difficult, because allied fighters disturbed those pieces of training, and loss of fuel caused problems for flight operations. When we are talking about German submarines and their weapons, there were made new kind of torpedoes, what could guide to the target by using electric wires, what was in the spinning rod, and the captain of the submarine could drive those torpedoes to the target by using two circuit breakers. Those weapons were ineffective because if the captain of the submarine made the wrong move while losing the sight of the torpedo, would those torpedoes destroy own submarine.


The "Walter turbine", what allowed to drive submarines underwater with high speed flopped because the fuel was too exotic. And the principle, where steam for turbines was created by mixing hydrogen peroxide and water was very good, but those submarines were ready for their first patrol in May 1945, and they couldn't make an influence for the World War II. But those submarines were the very good vision and technically advanced. And some bad rumors tell or claims that they were produced for allied forces as the commercial card, what kind of things the German military engineers could do.  One of the reasons for the failure of those wonder weapons was that their users could not wait for the sign of their effectiveness against the enemy.


If some of those wonder weapons were not hit the target, that meant the delaying of the production of that system. And of course, German factories were gone under the heavy bombings, and that made impossible to the product of those new weapons, and that made them ineffective against any target. They were very technical and difficult to the product. But the air superiority of allied forced Germans to make those weapons, what was not very effective, sometimes because of the small production numbers. Of course in German political culture was very many cases, were the engineer, who made mistakes just executed, and that's why those people hide mistakes, what they made in very high pressure and for those projects were given very short time. That made those machines dangerous for their users.

Making analyze of technical advantages in aviation

F-36 Interceptor
(Picture I)

http://crisisofdemocracticstates.blogspot.fi/p/making-analyze-of-technical-advantages.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Next writing is pure hypothetical, and there is full of presumptions. When we are talking about information, what is given about military equipment, we must think also many more things that only the written details. Many times there are more important things, in the parts, what is not purely. The thing what should notice, when somebody writes or tells about AREA-51 or some equipment, what is classified as "Top Secret", is that who would use it, or where it should fly.


This might feels boring, but if some military aircraft home base is AREA-51, and it would fly every mission from that base, would that mean something. When we are talking about military aircraft or any other weapons, we must notice that those equipment need support bases and support equipment. And if we are thinking about the top aircraft in the world like SR-71 "Blackbird" we might guess, why those flights were so expensive to fly.


Same reason might cause the reason, why also B-2 "Spirit" bombers are so expensive. Those aircraft are unique pieces, and that's why they need many unique parts, and probably even the chemical mixture of those aircraft fuels is unique. That makes them very expensive. Also if there would be problems in the mission, those aircraft need support crew, what would handle those planes in the case of accidents. But when we are talking about top military equipment, we must know, that there must be systems, what can abort the mission, if that plane or it's pilot would starting to act unexpected way.


And one of the questions is that if some naval aircraft have the capacity to use hydrogen as a fuel, that gives the unlimited capacity to operate those planes from aircraft carriers. Nuclear powered aircraft carriers have the capacity to make hydrogen by using electrolysis in the chamber, and if there would be aircraft, what have the capacity to use hydrogen in its jet motors, that aircraft would not have limits for its operations. That means the task force doesn't need oil supply for aircraft. and that would also make those aircraft carriers safer because they can make the fuel only when they need it.


The hydrogen what is produced by electrolysis would not end like hydrocarbons, and if we want to be clever, we might equip those aircraft also with oxygen tanks, what means that they would rise very high altitude. If those jet-fighters would use oxygenation in their jet motors, they can rise to the orbital trajectory.


If we are thinking about the controlling those aircraft, they might equip with control layers, what is installed in the jettison. Those layers would turn the exhaust gas and allows those aircraft to maneuver outside from atmosphere. This could be the future military aircraft, what can operate in and out of the atmosphere, and that thing has also capacity to destroy satellites by using missiles or laser weapons. Those aircraft or space shuttles can also use EMP-weapons to destroy the satellites electronic equipment when the satellite would look like undamaged, but it's electronics are destroyed.


That would be the catastrophic situation if that happens to "sleeping" satellite, what is sent to space for use in wartime. The EMP makes the situation possible, where those satellites don't wake up, or in the worst scenario somebody might replace the electronic equipment of the satellite by another one using spacewalk, and then that satellite might send the opponent's headquarters position to the weapons. In the worst scenario opponents, the military commander would shoot missiles in their own headquarters. But this is only the hypothetical situation and there is no proof that this kind of things has been done.

The prize of B-2 "Spirit" bomber is huge by the same reason than SR-71 "Blackbird" prizes are high

B-2 "Spirit"
Picture 1

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The prize of flight-hour of the B-2 "Spirit" bomber is extremely high because those airplanes are unique pieces of military technology. STEALTH-bombers are the most effective and frightened military machines. Those extreme killing-machines are planned by using same philosophy, what is used in the SR-71 "Blackbird" ultra-fast recon plane. STEALTH aircraft are unique designs, what have special fuel and tanker connectors, and they probably have unique airborne refueling aircraft and unique chemical structure of fuel. That means that if somebody steals that aircraft, they would not make anything with it.  B-2 "Spirit" has the capacity to strike its targets with long-range STEALTH-cruise missiles or tactical smart guided nuclear or conventional weapons like GBU-32 bombs and stand-off missiles.

X-47B
(Picture 2)

The truth is that STEALTH-bombers would in some missions wanted to replace with other military systems, what is cheaper, smaller and more effective than those strategic bombers. The problem of strategic bombers is that they are very large, and they need large runways. That's why the enemy could strike against those runways, and they also see if the planes are on the base by using satellites. One of those new style weapon systems is a cruise missile, what can refuel during the flight, and this means that those missiles can cruise independently in an atmosphere, and they can equip with landing gears or those weapons can fly in the cargo-planes if they wanted to return to the base for service.


This gives SAC more capacity to strike against any target on Earth by long distance. The conventional B-52 bomber can shoot those missiles from friendly airspace, and they can be refueled by fighters, what has refueling pack or normal tanker aircraft. And if the strike would be canceled, those missiles can be called back, and they can be returned to the base.


The BGM-109 "Tomahawk" might be launched by the same platforms that are used with BQM-109 drones, and those drones are actually unarmed versions of that cruise missile. Those missiles can also equip with AMRAAM or other air combat sub-missile systems, and that might give them more lethality than ever before. Those ultra modern missiles can be travel to the target by thousands of kilometers, and they can be operated together with another drone like X-47B, what can send real-time recon information about that strike to the commanders of military forces.


That X-47B can also equip with warheads, and if there would be the target, what is important enough, those drones can be used as missiles, what makes the "kamikaze"-attacks against those targets. The new kind of drones can equip with nuclear warheads, or they can drop also nuclear bombs to the target. In this scenario, those nuclear bombs would be exploded inside the drone, or they can drop to the target. So those drones can be used as bombers or missiles, as the commander wants to use them against enemy targets.

What propaganda really means?

ALMAZ-Beriev A-60
Laser tesbed
(Picture 1)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Propaganda is the term what means disinformation. The purpose of the disinformation is to minimize the damages if some top-secret aircraft have been shot down. In those cases will be claimed that the aircraft was only the "hoax" or it was mentioned to send in the hands of an enemy.  Those rumors, what are made in purpose, will state to claim that the STEALTH- or whatever aircraft what was sot down were "old model" or "trojan horse", what turns the public eye away from the "real stuff". This type of propaganda is meant for denying the enemy to get benefits about the wreck.


Modern military aircraft are combination what is equipped with sophisticated artificial intelligence, what can correlate the mistakes, what the pilots might do. Those artificial intelligence programs can launch chaff and flare, and begin the anti-missile actions automatically, what will decrease the stress of the pilot.


Many people want to believe, and this makes the analysis so difficult. In the real world, we must say, that human is is the toughest judge for self, but same time we are blind to our own weaknesses. Many western people want to believe, that F-15 would not be destructed or dropped by the rebellions of Yemen, but those rebels say that they are shot down F-15, what was operated by Saudi-Arabian Airforce. But who knows was the F-15 actually operated by Saudi-Arabia. There are rumors that sometimes USAF has been covered the losses by putting their airplanes to the name of some other nation.


The problem of the information of the military operations is that those operations were always colored by the propaganda, what hides the true operators and equipment what were effective in those maybe secret operations. The information warfare bases the thing that the effective equipment is in the background and in the front is the equipment, what was not so effective. And of course, we must realize, that any military force in the world doesn't show it best equipment for enemies. There is always the equipment what is reserved for the use of Russia's and USA's own personnel.


The second type of people who want to believe are the people, who want to believe, that Russian SU-35 is the best aircraft in the world, and those people want to believe, that USAF is some kind of grab. And in this situation will the rumors grow, that the dropped airplane was actually USAF operated F-15, and the government wants to deny the truth, that USAF airplanes are flying toys with full of software, and then the airplane what have been shot down starts to grow and at least one so-called "expert" will be seen to say, that the plane that was shot down was at least B-2 bomber.


The rumors are growing in the people's mind and the worst problem of those things of the information is that if somebody really wants to believe something, would that guy do everything to protect the thing, what this person believes. When this kind of person writes in some magazine, will the story go like this: The Russian airplanes were often got the position behind the other airplanes like that means that the target would be shot down straight away. The vertical and horizontal moving capacity is very important in the military aviation, and if the fighter has the laser weapon, there is much easier to shoot down the enemies. The laser can drop the enemy at any angle, and it can fire without limits of the ammunition. And if the target were pointed by the laser, it has no opportunity to escape, because powerful lasers can burn the trunk of the airplane in hundredth second. Above is the picture of Russian testbed with high energy laser weapons (Picture 1).


Or this is possible if the Russian fighters have got the laser weapons, what the Soviet Union and later Russia have tested since 1980's. In this situation would the Russian fighters capacity to shoot down any target, what they want. But when we are talking about rebels and multi-million dollar military aircraft, we must realize that the air defense missiles, what can be shot from the shoulder are extremely dangerous against an airplane, what this weapon will be pointed. The FIM-92 "Stinger" and SA-7/14 series of light man-portable missiles have revolutionized the warfare.



 And they can shoot down any airplane what comes too close. Also, normal reconnaissance drones can be equipped those missiles and laser weapons, and this is the thing, what we don't want to believe. Couple of hundred dollar equipment can have the same strike- and air combat capacity than those multi-million dollar aircraft. And if any aircraft would be equipped with laser weapons, they could destroy any so-called conventional fighter. Those laser weapons are extremely powerful, and they will cut their targets in pieces.

Was the "Baltic Sea UFO" the BMW's flying disk or the "Flügerad" from the year 1944

Picture 1

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Was the “UFO of the Baltic sea" actually the BMW’s flying disk, is the question, what might interested some persons. When the couple of years ago some investigators found the disk-shaped object on the bottom of the Baltic Sea, the media was very interested in that thing, but in that time they forgot that in the end of the World War II the German aircraft engineers made many radical aircraft concepts, and some of those airplanes was made only one or two pieces.



And one of those concepts was the BMW’s flying disk. This disk was made by the BMW-corporation for emergency production, and the shape of the disk was chosen for decreasing the need for aluminum.  This saucer-shaped aircraft had two piston engines, but in the later models were planned to install the BMW 003 jet engine. This aircraft is not very well known. And when the WWII was ended, many of those experimental aircraft was destroyed or sank into the sea.

Picture 2

So maybe that UFO was the BMW’s “Flying saucer" or "Flügerad", what was sink in the sea by the German military at the end of the war. One version of the "Flügerad" was used capillary tubes to rotate the inner propel system by pulling the wind thru it, and then the disk shape craft would be rise from the ground.


The order of those operations was given by the German high command for denying their most secret weapons to go to hands of the allied. Also, the scientists who worked in those projects were ordered to execute, because that was meant to hide those technical advantages like infrared scopes, missiles, and other military technology out of the hands of Allied forces.

The weapon named CHAMP (Counter-Electronics High Power Microwave Advanced Missile Project)

B-1 "Lancer" bombers
(USAF)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The microwave weapons are not necessary so harmless to humans than people normally believe. The microwaves will cause the body temperature rising, and in the scull area, that kind of thing causes the very bad situation. If the liquids that are in that area will get heat, they will expand, what might cause the situation, when the skull will break by growing pressure. If the microwave is very powerful, it might cause even the vaporizing the person or another target. This is a text about microwave weapons, not weapons what operates in radio frequency. Normally weapons what are using radio frequency are harmless to people, but if two radio waves what have same frequency meet together will the electric arc be dangerous for people and material.


The microwave weapons are meant for replacing the napalm because this kind of DEW:s (Directed Energy Weapons) have the sharped edge of the effect than napalm, and those weapons are more useful for many actions than napalm. The radiation weapons can be used as making over voltage for electric circuits, and also for destroying the ammunition shacks and fuel dumps, by heating the target, when explosives or fuel in that target will start to burn.


The microwave weapon doesn't need the missile to carry it to the target because this system can be mounted to any aircraft in the world.  Many people believe that some of the F-22 and F-36 fighters might have microwave weapons in their radars, and when the pilot turns the radar to attack position, the radar will start to work as the microwave frequency, what will cause damages to any other aircraft electronics and structure.


And microwave weapons can be useful for protecting the heavy bombers. If the bomber uses infra-red-camera and points the microwave transmitter to attacking missile, that will at least destroy its electronics. Also special forces aircraft like MC-130 "Combat Talon" might have microwave weapons for eliminating the target's capacity to communicate and make alarms, when the special forces team is operating in somewhere.


Even if the microwaves won't be effective enough for the only weapon for fighters, they might cause very bad damages to enemies, and one thing why people are afraid of this kind of weapon is that if it is targeted to another airplane, it will heat it, and that might cause the structural damages to plane or even the explosion of the fuel, or the braking the wing. The microwave weapons are very devastating, and they don't leave any evidence that they are used to the target behind them. This is the problem with directed energy weapons, what are meant for tactical use.


Those laser and microwave weapons don't decrease ammunition and if the pilot can turn off the surveillance system, might this officer shoot down another airplane and nobody sees nothing. So in the world of the conspiracy theories, is an interesting thing to think that if this kind of weapon uses against some passenger planes they can disappear without any sign that they ever existed. Is this kind of weapon the reason for some losses in the air, where the modern airplanes disappear like ash to the wind.
