Re: Bf110 & RZ65 "Trommelgerät"

IIRC, USN interrogation of the RZ 65 and RZ 73 manufacturer indicated that the development for both of these weapons was complete, but they were not put into service because of dispersion. Their continued development of unguided rockets abandoned spin stabilization for fin stabilization. The Germans felt it was a mistake that they had pursued spin stabilization as long as they had.

Best regards,

Artie Bob
