Re: Intended use for Ju-287 jet bomber ?
Dear Ed,
Documents and photos. Quoting from the movie Jerry Macquire: "Show me the money!"
As for an Italian being invited to witness a German atom bomb test, they stopped testing the Me 262 at Lechfeld briefly while Italian air crew were on the base for training, covering the planes with tarps. I sort of doubt that they'd be invited to watch something "beyond top secret Ultra".
Do you remember Joe Thompson? He was the guy in Australia several years ago who got everyone a-twitter claiming he had a fully functioning Me 262B-1a/U1 secretly shipped from a barn in Switzerland. As with here, photos and documentation were never forthcoming. One poor fellow was so taken with the story that he actually went to Australia to meet the guy. Afterwards, the story imploded.
Regards,
Richard
