The Do217 and B17 and 24 were designed around the same time and similar problems lead too similar solutions. The 217 was a medium bomber but somewhat a heavy for the Germans
The original design philosophy of the Do17 was as a "schnellbomber" or fast bomber. But by the time of the Battle of Britain it was nowhere near "schnell" enough to evade fighters. It was the British Mosquito that made the concept of the "schnellbomber" work.
The first radio controlled guided bomb. The Fritz X caused massive damage but unfortunately the bomber it was dropped from had to fly straight and steady while the operator was guiding it which made them sitting ducks to any nearby allied fighters.
After the war, the inventor of the Fritz X went to the US as part of operation paperclip. He was employed at the Naval Air Development Center in Johnsville until 1951, where he developed an acoustic guidance system for guided missiles.
Every Video where HMS Warspite is mentioned he gets it wrong, everytime someone tries to explain the correct pronunciation, then the next video its still pronounced wrong.
why are you surprised? He can't get the name of the weapon in the bloody video right, why would he bother with something as incidental as a ship name, mildly surprised he got the right Italian ship destroyed ( which the Germans were unaware they sank until later BDA)
I was impressed with the smart bomb invention. Didn’t know the Germans invented that too. Wow, ME-262 fighter jets, modern submarines that today’s subs are patterned after, and the V-2. If these guys would have waited a year or more to start their war, the world would look more like “The Man in the High Castle.”
Don't forget the machine pistol. The Germans invented created the MP18 in 1918. And the assault rifle, the StG44 (1944), although field trials had commenced on the Eastern Front in 1943. Also the world's first and only operational rocket fightet (Me 163), world's first twin jet bomber (Ar 234), which also had a four and six engined variant. The worlds first stealth plane (Ho 229) which flew twice before the war ended. Although to be honest they didn't realise it was stealthy when it flew :) The world's first operational helicopters, world's first cruise missile (V1), world's first operational single jet fighter (He 162), world's first jet aircraft (He 178). Plus who could forget the world's first radio controlled glide bomb (Hs 293) and the world's first radio controlled powered bomb (Fritz X)
They also invented the flame thrower, first used poison gas, first country to bomb civilian targets as a means of warfare, perfected the use of death camps and wore kinky leather shorts for fun.
Please get the facts right , The 12:57 min pilot is not German he is a British mosquito pilot Charles Pickard who was in the British propaganda film Target for Tonight and sadly lost his life on the Amiens prison raid
The Italians were aware of the Germans presence but didn't know they were under attack because the Germans had to fly straight so the rc operator could see & control the missile. The Italians didn't take evasive action until after the attack it was the 1st cruise missile attack in history
No radial engines, the Junckers Jumo was an inverted V-12 in line engine. Misleading is the annular radiator which resembles a radial engine front view.
No, the Do 217 WAS fitted with the BMW 801D radial engine (same as the Fw 190). The Do 215 and some early Do 217s were fitted with the Junkers Jumo engines.
@@neilfoster814 Only partially correct. DO-217 M and N models were fitted with DB 603 inverted V-12s. 498 M models were manufactured by Dornier. I couldnt find production numbers for the N models. 37 DO 217 M1s with DB 603 engines were converted to M11 models to carry Hs 293 or Fritz X glide bombs. But apparently J and K models with BMW 801s were also used for this purpose.

The Fritz Bomb had a few quirks - one of them being diving at supersonic speed - practically going right through a ship and exploding AFTER passing through the bottom of the hull. If I'm correct - the "Mythbusters" had an episode on the Fritz Bomb. Apart from being sitting ducks having to be close by to navigate the bomb- the bomb had to be ignited "prematurely" - it was to fast for the controls. Apropos premature the English tried to use Lancaster bombers as drones. Like an RC drone. They too had to be very close sadly some of the relays would catch fire and act as an ignition - making the bomb load explode. A brilliant technician were an expert on relays and warned against the specific relays for that very reason. However not being an engineer - he was told to keep quiet. Not being an engineer - he was out of bounds - even at the brink of being court marshalled for not following orders. The British lost 3 experenced crews in that manner. They relays were changed - the technician were never ex honoured. Until a BBC Antiques Roadshow had a diary from an English teenager - he drew all the aircrafts passing over with a note of time and date. He witnessed how one aircraft suddenly exploded and took another one down with it. From the diary they could determine exactly the aircrafts and the crews involved in the accident. It was shrouded in mistery how and why the crew was killed. The pilot at the aircraft controlling the drone was famous at the time. I've sadly forgot the details. The teenager was the witness of what happened. Everything was covered up. I only remembered it because of the diary got a very high appreciation. It connected all the dots and how the famous pilot died. It became a very important documentary of history. As I remember this was in 1943 in the early summer. (June?). There were rumours and circumstantial evidence. The diary connected it all without a shadow of a doubt. I'm not an aircraft buff in spite of having served in the airforce for some years. I'm interested in history in general. I know the Spitfires evolved a lot.

Do217 is based on the Do17. Basic same wings and tail designs. Do17 1st went to war during Spanish Civil war 1936-1939. Before either B-17 or B-24 were viable warplanes.
The DO-217 was underestimated by many. It got the payload and range of a B-17, was much faster and much more agile. The German Bomber seems offen underestimated. The country has simple not the ressourcen to produce fat and heavy bombers. In case of a loss you lose 4 instead of a crew of 10. But even than Germany lost the war (luckily) die to shortage of resources and by far too much enemies. The airplanes were sometimes way ahead. The DO-217 was a good example.
Seems myriad innovations occurred during the war as to different ways of destruction. It’s no wonder soldiers would declare war is hell on earth. Amazing machines all designed to kill and destroy, it would be nice if we would spend as much time and energy towards getting along
British really had no choice. They couldn't afford to face the very capable French fast battleships as well as the existing German and Italian ones. The French admirals had three options to avoid the nastiness, scuttle the ships there and then, sail them to a neutral point to be impounded for the duration of the war or join the British Royal Navy. They refused and that was a tragedy.
@philiphumphrey1548 Yeah but typical bloody French. You just can't trust them. Their bemedalled and gold braid covered admirals never had the mettle the british or germans had, i.e. no enemy shall set foot on our ships. We simply at a time of national peril had no option to do anything else if the french refused to leave port and either sail into neutrality or to the UK and continue the fight. The french generals had already agreed to an armistice that surrendered all troops fighting in Northern France INCLUDING the British under their control. Ninety percent of the french troops evacuated from Dunkirk voluntarily returned to France via a deal with the germans. And the ships at Mers? Even if the french did scuttle them in harbour the germans within a year would have raised them, refitted them with the latest weapons and armour and put them back in action much like the americans did after Pearl Harbor. The result would have been a nightmare for the allies.
@fus149hammer5 you know who else you can't trust? People like you who hide behind a pseudonym on the net. Why are you frightened of using your real name?
As far back as WW1 they were using air burst shells filled with orange sized bomblets so cannister or cluster munitions are not exactly new. The radio guided or wire guided weapons were new ... The Italians famously were lacking in radar on their vessels hence falling victim to Warspites long range guns in a night attack at extreme range. They were already practicing jamming radar and radio frequencies in the air war... though both were in their infancy. 🤔 I guess they didnt intercept the orders to sink the fleet and use the Fritz guided bombs... Or did they ...there were key times Bletchley parks cards were played close to high commands chest .
You'd rather be in a B25 than a Do17. The firepower alone gave you a chance to fight back. The Dornier was fast when everyone else was still flying biplanes but by spring 1940 if a spitfire or hurricane came across a Dornier separated from its squadron that bomber was going down.
that's horseshite the B25 was a much better aircraft, the B26 even more so. German bombers were without exception crap. Shite range, shite survivability and shite bombload.
More than the usual, dozen mistakes in this one. Every comment section gives you the actual story, incorrectly told by the many dark channels. They are consistent, I’ll give them that! 😂
To be honest - if something one should have been scared it was the Friz X not Dornier 217, which was hopelessly underpowered and not a great airplane by any standards,
First time that I hear about " schräge Musik" Do 215. Nice flowery documentary. The Do was generally unterpowered and had few range...a handycsp. And he 7.92 mm guns just a joke.
best part about Schrage musik was it was invented by the Japanese, one of the few tech exchanges from Japan to Germany during WW2, they refined and improved it of course.
Wrong...the meteor never saw actual combat vs other aircraft...it chased after and tipped the rockets with it's wing to knock it off course and to crash...the 262 made several successful attacks on bomber raids.
Putting nearly all the flight crew within touching distance of each other was good for morale and workload but a bit of a bugger when a spitfire puts a burst of 20mm cannon fire straight into the cockpit. Aint nobody getting out of that mess.
They never managed to successfully make a heavy bomber. You're STILL talking WAAAAY too fast in a misguided attempt to sound dramatic. Sad really as you've obviously done a fair amount of research to produce this.
Why does the commentator have to put on the strange affected voice? Obviously put on why? To me it spoils the point of the video, he sounds like a Darlek to me!
At 3:45 it shows a 217 on the ground with what I think is most likely a prototype for a pulse jet, although it might be a ramjet (when he speaks of the Do217 being used for experiments). According to Wikipedia, a ramjet was tested on a Do17Z, apparently. Anyway, its not completely clickbait at least :-)
It is a little known fact that the Italian battleships were easy to find because they were all fitted with 10 reverse speeds and only 1 forward speed 😂😂 Just look for warships all retreating at 30 knots
Dornier was/is a German company, not a French one. So, it should be pronounced Dorni-yer, not Dorni-yay. This video is probably rife with such errors, just like all the other videos these people so breathlessly put out, but I gave up watching when I heard that howler.
Desert fox Irwin Rommel recounted a story- He was invited to recieve a medal from 'il duce'- he arrives at the palaccio- hes invited in and sits to speak to The great Mussolini, who's with Clara Pitachi, his mistress-il duce fiddles in his drawer-looking for the medal for rommel- who already knows why he's been summoned- they begin small talk- mussolini blurts out that he just can't understand why his Italian blackshirts cannot do as well as the wermacht and the vaunted SS - it seems the Germans ALWAY win and never lose- ! Rommel, good hearted soul that he is, offers solace- he explains "il duce, please do not fret! In this life everyone has a natural calling and something they are good at- in Germany we are master craftsmen and produce the best soldiers the world has ever seen- ITS A military TRADITION back to prussia- Your country, Italy, makes the finest designers,clothing- beautiful styles in art-even gorgeous automobili- its just that there really is NO military tradition worth mentioning in italy- but just think of all the OTHER wonderful things your people can do in life besides soldiering.... At this point mussolini glared at him as he slammed the drawer with Rommels gorgeous medals shut, screaming "this meeting is OVER!" ROMMEL RECOUNTED YEARS LATER.. "IF I JUST COULD HAVE KEPT MY MOUTH SHUT A FEW MINUTES LONGER..THAT MEDAL WAS SO BEAITIFUL..."

Putting nearly all the flight crew within touching distance of each other was good for morale and workload but a bit of a bugger when a spitfire puts a burst of 20mm cannon fire straight into the cockpit. Aint nobody getting out of that mess.
But the Germans lost the Battle of Malta.
Brave and decent german Airmen. Germans were the best !
They were part of a murderous savage and pitiless dictatorship. They only became decent when they realised that they were beaten.
Germany extended to far to fast.
Yes they outstripped their logistics the vital element to victory.

Another dialogue written by a five year old.
I didn't hear any dialogue. Got a time stamp?
AI?
"Sliced through Mediterranean air"
God, how I hate the breathless, over flowery, portentous, commentary at times. For me it distracts from the content, which is pretty good.
I agree it adds sod all to the story.he should tell us as it is/was
I always watch for the inaccuracies and incorrect pronunciation
Aaah, Italy… they had a hard time beatibg some African trivesmen, right?
They never managed to successfully make a heavy bomber. You're STILL talking WAAAAY too fast in a misguided attempt to sound dramatic. Sad really as you've obviously done a fair amount of research to produce this.
Typically a American view,
Why does the commentator have to put on the strange affected voice? Obviously put on why? To me it spoils the point of the video, he sounds like a Darlek to me!
So where was the Do with the ramjet on top? NOWHERE!
I expected more than useless clickbait, Hoss.
At 3:45 it shows a 217 on the ground with what I think is most likely a prototype for a pulse jet, although it might be a ramjet (when he speaks of the Do217 being used for experiments). According to Wikipedia, a ramjet was tested on a Do17Z, apparently. Anyway, its not completely clickbait at least :-)
It is a little known fact that the Italian battleships were easy to find because they were all fitted with 10 reverse speeds and only 1 forward speed 😂😂 Just look for warships all retreating at 30 knots
🌲👍🏻😎🎄
Dornier was/is a German company, not a French one. So, it should be pronounced Dorni-yer, not Dorni-yay. This video is probably rife with such errors, just like all the other videos these people so breathlessly put out, but I gave up watching when I heard that howler.
Yet you're still here.

Desert fox Irwin Rommel recounted a story- He was invited to recieve a medal from 'il duce'- he arrives at the palaccio- hes invited in and sits to speak to
The great Mussolini, who's with Clara Pitachi, his mistress-il duce fiddles in his drawer-looking for the medal for rommel- who already knows why he's been summoned- they begin small talk- mussolini blurts out that he just can't understand why his Italian blackshirts cannot do as well as the wermacht and the vaunted SS - it seems the Germans ALWAY win and never lose- !
Rommel, good hearted soul that he is, offers solace-
he explains
"il duce, please do not fret! In this life everyone has a natural calling and something they are good at- in Germany we are master craftsmen and produce the best soldiers the world has ever seen- ITS A military TRADITION back to prussia- Your country, Italy, makes the finest designers,clothing- beautiful styles in art-even gorgeous automobili- its just that there really is NO military tradition worth mentioning in italy- but just think of all the OTHER wonderful things your people can do in life besides soldiering....
At this point mussolini glared at him as he slammed the drawer with Rommels gorgeous medals shut, screaming "this meeting is OVER!"
ROMMEL RECOUNTED YEARS LATER..
"IF I JUST COULD HAVE KEPT MY MOUTH SHUT A FEW MINUTES LONGER..THAT MEDAL WAS SO BEAITIFUL..."
