Yes, they are jet turbines Member. These people were brilliant in technology. Far advanced in many areas. To bad all that brilliance was not used for good. Sad isn't it.

It reminds me of Wernher von Braun and Nazi rocketry program, terrifying to think what could have happened if the Germans had been able to develop ICBMs. But von Braun surrendered to the Americans when the war ended, came to America and became a US citizen, and helped to start NASA and the US space program.

Yes all true, a very brilliant man. Germany had several genius minded scientist which lead to way in technology. Isn't is amazing that a people so oppressed coming out of WWI rose so quickly to power? We, as a nation, should learn from this history. There are other fascist minded countries rising from oppression even as we speak, which also have brilliant minded scientist. China for one example.
