Nazi Stealth Plane

Synopsis :
The Nazi Fuehrer Prinzip enabled the development of the
first flying wing stealth jet aircraft .
Discussion:
1.Fuehrer Prinzip:
A Non-Budget oriented allocation of resources .
Popular in old-style autocracies , but difficult for a present
economic person to understand .
or Appendix A for ease .
2.The Aircraft .
Developed by the Horton brothers according to Fuehrer
Prinzips , but then lost to Gotha because of politics .
One of the reasons why the plane had no major impact on WW
II .Too late .
But it had a major impact on all post-war aircraft designs .
3.The plane .
Picture :
“The Horten H.IX, RLM
designation Ho 229 (often, and wrongly,[1] called Gotha Go 229 because of the identity of the chosen
manufacturer of the aircraft) was a German prototype fighter/bomber designed by Reimar and Walter Horten and built by Gothaer Waggonfabrik late in World War II. It was the first pure flying wing powered by jet engines.[2]”
“Stealth technology[edit]
“After the war, Reimar Horten said he mixed charcoal dust in with
the wood glue to absorbelectromagnetic waves (radar), which
he believed could shield the aircraft from detection by British early warning ground-based radar that
operated at 20 to 30 MHz (top end of the HF band),
known as Chain Home”
Report
after testing in 2008 AD
“This
implies a frontal RCS(Radar Cross Section) of only 40% that of a Bf 109 at the
Chain Home frequencies”
A stealth
aircraft .
The Dear Readers can work out themselves why it took 50
years to adopt an actual working system to the B series .
4.Whatever happened to the Horton brothers ?
They created it the whole new thing .
As the war ended, Reimar Horten emigrated to Argentina after failed negotiations with
the United Kingdom and China,[6] where he continued designing
and building gliders, one experimental supersonic delta-wing aircraft and one
twin-engined flying wing transport called the "Naranjero" for its intended use of
carrying oranges for export. It was unsuccessful commercially. Walter remained
in Germany after the war and became an officer in the post-war German Air
Force. Reimar died on his ranch in Argentina in 1994, while Walter died in
Germany in 1998.
In the late 1940s, the personnel of Project Sign, the U.S. Air Force's flying saucer investigation, seriously
considered the possibility that UFOs might have been secret aircraft
manufactured by the U.S.S.R. based on
the Hortens' designs.[7]
·
Unrestored examples of
the Horten H.IIIh and Horten VI sailplanes
are displayed at the Steven F.
Udvar-Hazy Center facility of theNational Air
and Space Museum (NASM) in Washington, D.C.
·
Two of the Horten's
gliders built in Argentina can be seen at the Museo Nacional de Aeronáutica located in Morón, a few
miles west of Buenos Aires.
·
The turbojet-powered Ho
229 V3 brought to the U.S. as part of Operation Paperclip for
evaluation is in storage at the NASM awaiting restoration.
·
An example of the Horten IV glider is located in the "Planes of Fame" aircraft museum in Chino, California.
·
A restored Horten IV is
also on display at the Deutsches Museum in Munich.
·
A Horten H 1B sailplane
(LV-X017) built in 1954 was restored to flying condition (Years 2007-2008) and
flown (Year 2008) at the Club de Planeadores Otto Ballod, Adolfo Gonzales
Chaves city, Argentina. It is currently at the Club de Planeadores Otto Ballod
(Otto Ballod Sailplane Club).
5.Interesting aside :
This way of allocating resources is now called “Champions”
in Russia or “New economic paradigm” in China .
Works great in expanding systems , but crashes in
contracting economies .
To put it another way , if NASA employed the Horton brothers
they would have been designing better biplanes .
Just flapping along

Fuehrer Prinzip .
Andre Willers
5 Oct 2009
Synopsis :
Ever wonder how technophobes like the Nazi's managed to create technology that was far in advance of their contemporaries ?
Discussion :
Capitalist/Communist : Capital is allocated at the start (the top)
Fuehrer Prinzip : Capital is allocated at the end (the bottom) .
The difference can be exactly calculated using the principles of Reserves (see http://andreswhy.blogspot.com "New Tools: Reserves" or compound interest .
The Bottom :
Individuals hacked out their little niches . There was no oversight process . Each idea was judged on it's merit and the pushiness of it's sponsor . The sponsor was rewarded by resources and prestige . This leads to an explosion of different ideas .
Each leader literally pushes his ideas . Whether it is rockets , tanks , guns ,etc .
As long as the society was on a roll , it works very well . When resources become restricted , it bombs . The victors take over the good ideas .
Cf Vikings , Mongols , Nazis
Contrast this with the Capitalist or Communist process , where resource allocation is done at the capital-allocation stage . At the start . At the top .
The Bottom Line and the Top Line.
Capital control societies are Top Level control societies . You have to prove returns on an investment before any money is spent . I emphasize this .
The result is predictable . Innovation stagnates This makes room in the competition space for real bottom-line societies .
This leads to pulsed societies , with Capitalist/Communist systems alternating with Fuehrer Prinzip societies .
Evolutionary speaking , this is optimal as you get the best of both worlds .
The Napeolonic and Nazi's were the result of the European Class-system .
So is the present fundamentalist challenge (Christian or Muslim).
Old Christian and Muslim asset allocation are Top-line .
Internet , Old-Napoleonic is Bottom-Line .
Examples :
Pre-agricultural , Celtic , Bantu systems are Fuehrer Princip societies . Bottom-line counts .
Agricultural systems , Roman ,Chinese Empires etc are Top-level societies . Capital is allocated at the top .
Note that both are stagnant . They lead to optimal troughs that cannot be surmounted from internal resources .
Reminiscent of water-empires . External shocks from wealth creation destabilizes the whole shebang .
Can both exist at the same time ?
The Chinese Experiment :
Room for the small ones to experiment .
To have different districts with different growth rates . Differential Top-line and Bottom-line . Individuals can fit themselves into the environment that suits them .
The cost of capital has to be manipulated for this to work . This means the flow of capital .
The results of this has been calculated elsewhere .But as a rough estimate , capital flow is approximate to a AC current after it has passed through a rectifier .
The net bottom-line growth is about 7% . As observed . See previous posts .
The Optimal Mix :
1/3 Capitalism , 1/3 Communism and 1/3 FuehrerPrinzip
2/3 Top-line capital allocation , 1/3 Bottom-line capital allocation .
Fairly close to present world democracies . Very stable and strong .
The top-line allocation ameliorates brutal competition , without losing the benefits . The 1/3 ratios are derived from infinite progressions .
See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com "NewTools: Reserves"
Messing it up :
You have to screw up the top-line (2/3) and the bottom-line (1/3) simultaneously . The odds of getting it right is about (1- (1-2/3)(1-1/3)) = 0.78 . Getting it wrong is about 22% .
Now you too can understand human history ,.
Every dynasty has 1/5 chance of getting it wrong.
The communists is just another dynasty ,
They have to work like blazes to maintain , and it is an exponential process .
No wonder Mao did the counter-exponential thing with the Cultural Revolution .
Did it work ? The jury is still out .
The revolution
You can calculate the odds from the Optimal Mix above .This is a fractal attractor . Regardless where you start off , the end is the same . Only the speed differs .
Your grandchildren are the end-results of these attractors .
The revolutions of the heart .
Almond eyes .
The floating hand
The backward glance
Stifled yawn .
Tojours !
