History
The seventh FW "Flitzer" project was to be powered by the
DB 021 turboprop engine. It retained the same twin-boom
layout and utilized many components of the basic turbojet
"Flitzer".
In November 1944 Kurt Tank completely redesigned this project
into a classic aerodynamic layout with moderately swept wings
and the engine positioned in the rear fuselage.
The project failed to reach any further development stage.
