The E-100 was an experimental German WWII super heavy tank. The only prototype hull of this tank was built in 1943 or 1944. The car never entered mass production. The E-100 was to be powered by a single engine Maybach HL 230 P30 or Maybach HL 234 with 700 hp and 800 hp respectively. It was probably armed with a 128mm KwK 44 L / 55 gun and 2 machine guns MG34 cal. 7.92 mm.
Tank prototype The E-100 was created as part of the Entwicklungsserie program, a program for the development of German armor, which was to lead to a standardized design of a series of six tanks of different weights, but using as many common components as possible. The E-100 tank in this project was to be the heaviest tank, based on the chassis of the Pz.Kpfw VI Tiger II Ausf. B. The emphasis was on the strongest possible main armament and powerful armor - especially at the front of the turret and hull. However, the project, despite its far-reaching advancement, was abandoned in 1944, and the E-100 never entered mass production.
A manned version of the V1 missile, Fieseler Fi 103R Reichenberg IV, intended for suicide attacks on Allied aircraft and selected targets. The suicide flight program was planned to be implemented at the end of the war in 1945. Officially, the German military authorities used the term "ramming", however, the possibility of getting the pilot out of the rocket was practically non-existent, due to the high speed and the fact that the cockpit cover was located just below the jet engine inlet, additionally tilting only 45 degrees, which made it impossible to quickly lower the rocket. cabin by the pilot and landing on a parachute. In total, 70 pilots were trained and 175 Fieseler Fi 103R Reichenberg IV machines were produced, but their practical application on the battlefield was never achieved. The Fieseler Fi 103R Reichenberg IV missile itself was almost identical to the Japanese Yokosuka MXY7 Okha, used by Japanese suicide pilots, with the difference that the Japanese pilot's cockpit was screwed down, preventing the missile from leaving during the flight, while the cockpit in the German missile gave a theoretical chance to escape, although in practice not feasible. Specifications: Length: 8m, wingspan: 5.72m, maximum speed: 800 km / h, maximum range: 330 km.
