(picture of the Ho XIII A)
The Horten Ho XIII B was a supersonic flying wing fighter that was developed from the Ho XIII A glider, which had 60 degree swept-back wings and an underslung nacelle for the pilot. The Ho XIII B was to be powered by a single BMW 003R turbojet/rocket engine. The cockpit was located in the base of a large, sharply swept vertical fin. Projected armament were two MG 213 20mm cannon, and the Ho XIII B was projected to be flying by mid-1946.
