Country:  | Was ist das ?
a prototype in similiarity to the one that ace Kurt Welter tested for his commando. he was blinded by searchlights and suggested the front and bottom of the glass pannels be covered with steel plate to protect from debris and the obvious blinding from lower lights and fires in the cities. the project crawled so slow that Kurt shoved the type in the trash and went with the Me 262A-1a. | |

Country: | yes it's radar and the precussor of the FuG 218 set later used in the Me 262 B-1a/U1. Guess I need to include some more stats on the nf version of the Ar 234 ?

Country: | Sorry, I guess I am not sure what you are asking. Are you talking about the antenna, or nose structure? Or was that what you were asking? Oy, I am so confused now....

Country: | Ah, okay. Now that makes sense. I thought maybe you had tossed out an easy one for us. You usually have some pretty good stumpers! That one would have been as well, as my German aircraft knowledge is kind of lean, but I am learning.

| The glass nose on the Ar-234 is pretty much a dead give away.

Another projected version that was never worked on was the 234P, a two-seat night-fighter, with a lengthened nose to accomodate a centrimetric air-to-air radar
