The Nazis had some pretty cool technology, even things that looked like a flying saucer. But in the end, they were defeated as 10,000 T34 tanks beat some cool but not very useful flying machines...

FYI - they were also developing a New York City V2 rocket and had an cargo plane that could fly 5,000 miles without refueling. Also helicopters, thermal sights, infrared, remote controlled missiles (that actually sunk a few American troop transports)...

Is this how Hellboy got his first gig?

Examples of some interesting Nazi German experimental aircraft are on display at the Smithsonian Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia. The were seriously messing with flying-wing technology ... which was ultimately not to be made practical until the B-2.
