| - The Horten Ho 229 or Gotha Go 229 flying wing was an expirimental flying-wing type aircraft, developed in the latter parts of World War II. It is only featured during 'The Horten's Nest' in Medal of Honor: Frontline and Medal of Honor: Allied Assault‘s expansion packs.
- The first Horten aircraft specifically intended for combat, design work for the Horten H.IX (later 8-229) began in 1942. As the two BMW 109-003A-1 engines could not be installed through the spars, due to their larger than anticipated diameter, the first aircraft was test flown as a glider, with non retractable nose wheel, during the summer of 1944.
- The Horten Ho 229 was a flying wing prototype aircraft that was developed by Germany during World War II.
- The Horten H.IX, RLM designation Ho 229 (often, and wrongly,[1] called Gotha Go 229 because of the identity of the chosen manufacturer of the aircraft) was a German prototype fighter/bomber designed by Reimar and Walter Horten and built by Gothaer Waggonfabrik late in World War II. It was the first pure flying wing powered by jet engines.[2]

It was the first pure flying wing powered by jet engines.[2] It was given the personal approval of German Luftwaffen Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring, and was the only aircraft to come close to meeting his "3×1000" performance requirements, namely to carry 1,000 kilograms (2,200 lb) of bombs a distance of 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) with a speed of 1,000 kilometres per hour (620 mph). Its ceiling was 15,000 metres (49,000 ft).
