BV 222
Blohm Und Voss. BV 222.
The BV 222 (Wiking) Viking, was designed in 1937 as a six engined flying boat for Lufthansa’s trans-Atlantic service. The first civil prototype crashed in 1940, but further prototypes were completed as a military freight & troop carrier. Needless to say the war put an end to Germany’s trans-Atlantic ambitions. BV222’s first saw action in July 1941 flying from Hamburg to the Barents Sea carrying freight out & casualties on the return journey. Employed on Athens & Derna run. 72 stretcher casualties or 92 fully equipped troops could be accomadated [sic]. When German resistance ceased in North Africa the task of co-operating with the U-Boat fleet in the North Atlantic became as vital as the transport role, & the 222’s were transferred to this duty. The 222’s were classified as Long range Maritime and Reconnaisance [sic] Flying Boats. Powered by six Bramo Fafnir 323R-2 nine cylinder radial engines. Max speed 158mph. Max range 4350 miles. Max loaded weight 100530 lbs.
