WW2 Bachem Ba 349 Natter Interceptor Offered For Sale

Please Note: This is an archived post. The information presented here may not be current and the associated listing may no longer be active.

A German WW2 Bachem Ba 349 Natter rocket-powered interceptor has hit the market. The product description states:

You are bidding on a full size Bachem Natter BA 349 – the first vertical take off/rocket fighter aircraft in the world! This one was discovered in the back of a hangar. Partially it looks restored, partially original, partially new. I am not an expert on this. Outstanding opportunity to purchase a great show plane for your hangar or your WWII museum! The price is as is and where is! You may inspect it any time! Present location South Germany.

The Natter was intended to launch vertically and conduct the majority of its flight via autopilot. Upon sighting Allied bombers, the pilot would aim the machine at the target and fire its nose-mounted rockets, after which it would return to the ground via parachute. Only one manned flight was attempted on March 1, 1945, which resulted in the death of the test pilot.

This example is located in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany and is currently being offered for US $8,500. Click here to check out the complete listing on eBay.
