Design and development

In 1945, the German Air Ministry requested new designs for a new generation of jet fighters such as the Horten Ho 229 and Focke Wulf Ta 183. One of these designs was the Heinkel He P.1079. The initial design, known as the P.1079A, was a V-tail night fighter with wings that featured a 35 degree sweepback.The second and third designs were flying wings with a single vertical fin which replaced the V-tail of the P.1079A. The P.1079.B2 was a completely tailless flying wing. None of the three designs were ever produced, with development work ceasing at the end of World War II.
[edit]Variants

He P.1079A
Initial design with 35 degree swept back wings and a V-tail. Intended to be powered by Heinkel HeS 011 turbojets.
He P.1079B
Second flying wing design had a vertical tail and gull shaped wings. This was the single-seat, all weather, heavy fighter with the same intended engines as the P.1079A.
He P.1079B-2 (Entwurf II)
Last design of the He P.1079 and the tailless version; the wings were swept back sharply. This design could accommodate six fuel tanks in the wings. No evidence was found that the design was submitted to the RLM.

Found a site with lots of german projects models:

Thanks Kilo, I enjoyed the other project models.  It would be fun to see those in the game some day.

Hello Kilo this is a link about a website where you can find a lot of German project.

Have a nice day !

    Thanks, I like it! Hope them all will make it in IL-2.

There's one released for fsx

[Kilo]

   Good. Tell me if i'm wrong. If i remember well, the model can be extracted from there, just how they did with the cobra. In the credits, eagle dynamics was the for 3d model.

  I really like the design of this aircraft(the A variant) and will try to make a 3d model .But i'm a very inexperienced 3d model maker.And from what i've read in the il2 modeling bible the complete 3d D0_00 model in only 25% of total modeling involved.
  I'm doing this project for the fun of it and if someone decides to meke their own model or import it from flight sim they are more than welcomed to do so.

Both models look like they would be fast and maneuverable, and a hell of lot of fun to fly and fight in!

Say word on these? (Or other German projects like these?)
