mira nunca habia oido sobre este avion pero pence que era un modelo nuevo del he 111

In April 1944 Allied Intelligence interrogated a German POW who had been at Lechfeld during summer 1943. He claimed the Me 264 had regularly flown to Japan from a base in northern Finland operated by Sonderkommando Nebel

Absolutely fascinating. Never even heard a peep about this thing! Looks like a nazified B-29

Thank god they didn't use those in the blitz is all I can say. When you look at the incredibly short development times of aircraft in this era, the incalculable importance of the faults in luftwaffe strategy seems all the more scarily random.

I didn't know that the Germans built 3 Me-264s. I only knew of the two. But I did know they were prepping one prototype to carrry Hitler to Japan if the coup had worked in June 1944.

This is copped from he-111

DANKE SHER!

DID YOU KNOW THAT THERE ARE THREE ME-264 HAS BEEN BUILT SECRETLY AND WAS PREPPARED TO TAKING PART IN THE OPERATION EISENHAMMER ,TOGETHER WITH FW-200 AND JU-290 HEAVY BOMBER

I believe your statement "Only two were built" to be incorrect. One was built and flew between late '42 and mid-1944, when it was destroyed in a bombing raid. The remaining two, which were under construction, were never completed.
