List of WW2 Luftwaffe aircraft prototype projects

   

'Experimental, Research, Prototype, and Projects Only aircraft of the WW2 German Luftwaffe The list contains both aircraft that were development aircraft of planes that were in the war, and projects during the war. In the former, development can strech back to the 1920's in terms of development, and in the latter the project must have started between 1939-1945. No distinction between these two categories is made in the list currently. Currently only more major projects are listed, though manufactures had many internal projects. Listing is incomplete.
