Blohm & Voss P.188

The Blohm & Voss Bv P 188 was a long-range, heavy jet bomber design project by the Blohm & Voss aircraft manufacturing division during the last years of the Third Reich. It featured a novel W-wing planform with variable incidence. The project was rejected in favour of the Junkers Ju 287 and no aircraft was ever built.
