Country: | It was a rare Italian Savoia Marchetti SM. 92 Fighter in Luffwaffe Markings, M8 
The German's were testing one just outside Berlin.
Here's a Link which tells you about this Plane: http://worldatwar.net/chandelle/v3/v3n1/italtwin.html

| Amazing how the German airplane looks like a model for the USAF's F-82 Twin Mustang used in the Korean war as a radar plane. I am amazed how much the USA copied a lot of the German aircraft designs | |

Country:  | Perhaps, but in light of the changing world politics of that time, it was felt that it would be a tremendous waste not to utilize his knowledge.
The American rocket program certainly didn't suffer for it!  | |

| Just to remember : the ejection seat, the swept wing, the jet engine, the air-to-air-missile, the TV-guided-missile...etc. are german inventions, "inherited" by the Allies.......   | |
