 Blohm + Voss
Both from completely different backgrounds, Hermann Blohm was the born the son of an established Lübeck business family, Ernst Voss was born the son of a blacksmith still a subject of the Danish king in Fockbek near Rendsburg, it was their passion for shipbuilding and mechanical engineering which brought the two young engineers together.
Blohm + Voss had also taken the initiative technically: The steamship "Alida" was built as a trial ship for high-pressure boilers with superheaters - again at their own cost.
Blohm + Voss was increasingly involved in the building programme, although the two Blohm brothers always vehemently argued that they should not be uncoupled from civil shipbuilding.

 Blohm & Voss
Blohm &Voss completed the BV 155B V1 (V for Versuch, German for experiment) and scheduled the first flight for mid January.
Late in January 1944, the RLM directed Messerschmitt to transfer the whole project to Blohm & Voss and the BV 155 was born.
Blohm & Voss designed the whole power system to propel the BV 155 to speeds of about 692 kph (430 mph) at over 15,200 m (50,000 ft).

Mach 2 1/72 Blohm and Voss Bv 142
Blohm and Voss attempted to adapt the Ha 139 seaplane into a transatlantic mail transport for Lufthansa, but its mediocre payload and performance did not pass the corporate "so-what" test.
Attempting to salvage the project, Blohm and Voss engineers replaced the mail storage bay with a bomb bay and added an He 111-styled ventral cupola in an attempt to interest the Luftwaffe.

 Blohm & Voss BV-141
Blohm and Voss company of Hamburg, Germany was, and still is, a shipbuilder, (but I gather they've stopped building U-boats).
Still, Blohm und Voss had so much confidence in it that they produced a prototype at their own risk.
This was followed up by two more prototypes and finally ten production models, but the unconventional appearance of the plane was too much for the Nazis.

 Blohm & Voss BV 40 - Freepedia
The Blohm & Voss BV 40 was a glider fighter designed to attack Allied bomber formations.
Its key features were a very narrow (and thus hard to hit) cross section as result of being a glider, a fairly heavily armored cockpit, and two MK 108 cannons with very limited ammunition.

 Blohm & Voss Bv 155B
At Blohm and Voss on March 7, 1945, it was decided that the BV 155 V1 would log at least 10 flight hours in March and 15 hours in April, with most flights to be carried out at astonishing altitudes of between 45,933 and 52,493 feet (14-16 km).
Meanwhile, Blohm and Voss officials decided to halt all further work on the incomplete BV 155 V3, and to concentrate all efforts toward completion of the first C-series prototype, the BV 155 V4.
Another of the changes Blohm and Voss were contemplating was to abandon the complex series of first eight, and then four, underwing radiators favoured by Messerschmitt for two large scoop-type units to be mounted above the wings.

 Blohm & Voss BV P.211.02 Luft '46 Entry
Although the Blohm and Voss BV P.211.02 was judged as the best design, the He P.1073 (which became the He 162) was awarded a contract due to the fact that it needed less man hours for construction, and that it utilized the Bf 109 undercarriage legs.
The Blohm and Voss BV P.211.02 was designed by Dr. Richard Vogt, and was to be constructed of 58% steel, 23% wood, 13% Aluminum and 6% remaining materails.
This Blohm und Voss project was based on an earlier back-swept wing design, and was submitted for the Volksjäger competition.

 Blohm und Voss 194.03 by Francisco Soldan (Revell 1/72)
Around March of 1944, Blohm und Voss presented a proposal to the for an airplane of asymmetric design that simultaneously could be used for the roles of hunter and reconaissance, taking advantage of the experience obtained with its BandV 141 for recognition and, that of its successful earlier competitor, the Focke-Wulf Fw 189 Uhu.
The main advantages of an asymmetric configuration are that it increased the vision of field of the pilot and was able to greatly increase the autonomy and the lifting capacity of the second fuselage.
In spite of, or perhaps due to, the novel nature of the configuration, the design was forgotten and it did not get to proceed beyond the proposal stage.

 BV-155
When the Blohm and Voss company got the responsibility for the Me-155 project in August 1943 they were not happy with this.
Blohm and Voss designed a new laminar flow wing with a large radiator mounted over each wing.
The transfer was far from smoothly, Blohm and Voss wanting to redesign most of the Messerschmitt project.

Valued at $10 million, the contracts with Blohm + Voss, Nordseewerke, and Luerssen establish EDS PLM Solutions software and services as the corporate standard with three new clients and highlight the company's leadership and momentum in global shipbuilding, one of the PLM industry's most important segments.
Blohm + Voss, a company of ThyssenKrupp Technologies, is located in Hamburg, Germany.

 Blohm & Voss Bv 155
The Blohm und Voss team was still not satisfied with the design, and before the V-2 began its flight trials they proposed that the engine be switched to the DB 603U having the larger mechanically-driven supercharger of the DB 603E.
The Blohm und Voss team took this opportunity to replace the original Bf 109G canopy with an aft-sliding all-round vision canopy, and the rear fuselage decking was cut down.
The Blohm und Voss team elected to adopt a laminar-flow airfoil section, and abandoned the idea of using standard Bf 109G wings for the outer panels.

 Blohm & Voss Bv-141, Chronicles of the Arixo Air Defense Force
Blohm and Voss was, however, sufficiently impressed with the Bv-141, that they actually undertook to build it at their own expense.
There were scowls and snickering and suggestions that Blohm and Voss stick to flying boats.

 Blohm & Voss Ha 138
Remarks by Johan Visschedijk : "The Hamburger Flugzeugbau was the aircraft deparment of the Blohm and Voss shipyards, hence the 'Ha' in the designation.
The first prototype Ha 138 V1 (D-ARAK) first flew 15 July 1937, the second (D-AMOR) a few month later having a number of hull changes and an increase in the vertical tail projecting below the tailboom.
After considerable flight testing discovering inadequate stability, poor hydrodynamics and weak hull construction the company decided to abondon work on the third prototype.

 Blohm + Voss
Mr von Nitzsch also pointed out that Blohm + Voss is the first yard worldwide cutting and welding up to 90% of the steel required for a vessel on a state-of-the-art combined laser cutting and welding plant.
The yard of PSC-NDSB was built by Blohm + Voss AG in the 1980s as a naval shipyard on the order of Thyssen.
In addition to the two patrol vessels built at Blohm + Voss GmbH another up to 27 units are planned to be built.

 ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems
This building programme has been divided between the participating shipyards such that the first and the fourth corvette are to be built by Blohm + Voss, Hamburg, the second and fifth are to be built by the Lürssen in Bremen, and the third by Nordseewerke in Emden.
The K130 procurement programme is of great importance for the German naval ship-building industry and its component-supplying industry for strengthening their core competences in key technological fields.
The start of the manufacture of the first corvette marked the beginning of the building programme for the total of five class 130 corvettes (approved by the budget committee of the Bundestag on 13 December 2001).

 RC Luft 46 Blohm & Voss P212-03
The Blohm and Voss entry was the BV P.212.03.
One interesting feature that Blohm and Voss designer Dr. Vogt used for many of his projects (BV P.209.01, P.210.01, P.211) that was also included in the BV P.212.03 design was the bent steel air intake duct that was also used as a fuselage inner load-bearing structure (see photo below).
In addition, the wings were designed to be built out of either wood, steel or aluminum, although the first versions were to have the usual stressed skin steel construction.

 Blohm & Voss P. 188
This was the first design of the Blohm und Voss P.188 jet bomber.
The fuselage center section was designed as an armored steel shell which was to hold the fuel supply, with the forward and rear sections being bays for the tandem twin main landing gear wheels.
There was no armament fitted and the bombload was 1000 kg (2200 lbs.) which was to be carried internally.

 Blohm & Voss BV 141 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The preferred contractors were to be Arado, but the requested prompted the Focke-Wulf company to work up the alternative idea of the Focke-Wulf Fw 189, a twin-boom design with two smaller engines and a central crew gondola, while Blohm + Voss proposed something far more radical.
The Blohm + Voss team came up with several other asymmetric designs, but none were actually built.
It is best remembered as the most asymmetrical aircraft to have ever flown.
