BMW designed this bomber as a flying wing. Two BMW 018 turbojets rated
at 3450 kp (7590 lbs/thrust) were to be mounted beside one another in the
rear of the aircrft and fad by an air intake duct running through the fuselage.
The bombardier was to be prone in a ventral armored compartment to provide
optimal visibility during bombing runs. Two machine cannon were planned
for installation in a remote controlled rear turret, to be operated from
the navigator's position. The bomb load was 5000 kg (11000 lbs).
