 Bachem Ba.349
However, a new proposal was pushed forward by its designer Erich Bachem which was a semi-expendable target defence interceptor; half way between the original requirement and a flak missile, Bachem's BP 20 could be deployed in a similar fashion to the "Julia" but was less complex for the pilot.
As there was a shortage of trained and skilled pilots, the BP 20 was to be launched automatically, powered to height under autopilot with radio guidance, the "semi-skilled" pilot only bringing the aircraft under his control towards the final phase of the mission to direct the on board rocket battery onto the bombers.
Because of the vertical launching method, in common with Enzian, the Walter motor for the BP 20 needed four Schmidding 553 solid fuel booster rockets in the initial phase of the launch to provide sufficient power to initiate flight.
