Not a bomber - it would have been the A10 rocket.


No, it was a "stealth" airplane.

According to the show, the troops found an experimental stealth airplane
in a hangar in France in the spring of 1945. It had crashed durng a test
flight in February, killing the pilot, but had been restored.

The airplane and parts (possibly for others) were broght back to the US and
stored in a warehouse. Airplane technicains were allowed to
come in and take measurments for a short time.

They then went back to their factory and built a model of it which was used
to test it for it's ability to be detected by 1945 vintage radar. It was
good enough that had it flown, it would not have been detected until
20 miles off the coast of England or the US.

The film also re-enacted a meeting between the head of the Luftwaffe and
the designers of the airplane (which was reliably documented) that they were
told to produce a stealth bomber which could reach New York from (occupied)
France.

At the time of the meeting, it was expected that Germany would have an
atomic bomb in time for a 1946 flight.
