  Blohm & Voss BV 155 - Encyclopedia Glossary Meaning Explanation Blohm & Voss BV 155   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The Blohm + Voss BV 155 was a high-altitude interceptor aircraft intended to be used by the Luftwaffe against raids by USAAF B-29's.
Blohm und Voss found, somewhat to their surprise, that P.1091 was essentially a research project only, and little actual engineering had been started.
Blohm und Voss decided that the design problems still needed fixing, but by late 1943 they still hadn't been addressed.

From about 1930 to 1945 the Blohm und Voss company also designed and built aircraft for use by both the German state airline, Lufthansa, and the air-force, Luftwaffe.

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.
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 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.

 Flying boat
Aircraft such as the PBY Catalina and Short Sunderland recovered downed airmen and operated as scout aircraft over the vast distances of the Pacific Theater and Battle of the Atlantic during World War II.
The largest flying boat of the war was the Blohm und Voss Bv 238 which was also the heaviest plane to fly during the Second World War.
The Hughes H-4 Hercules in development in the U.S. during the war was even larger than the Bv238, but it did not fly until 1947.The "Spruce Goose", as the H-4 was nicknamed, was the largest flying boat ever to fly.

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.

Proposals were received from Blohm und Voss, Arado, Focke-Wulf, and Heinkel when the first evaluations were made on 15 September, Messerschmitt having refused to submit a proposal.
Blohm und Voss's Projekt 211 was judged the best with Heinkel's as second-best.
It may well have been second-best, but it possessed one major advantage over the Blohm und Voss proposal; it was much further along in the design process.

After two more prototypes and sufficiently successful initial trials the RLM ordered five Blohm und Voss BV 141A-0 (Hamburger Flugzeugbau was bought by Blohm und Voss shipyards).

 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.

The Blohm + Voss BV 141 is a World War II German tactical reconnaissance aircraft prototype.
The preferred contractors were to be Arado, but the request 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.
