Messerschmitt Me 323 ![]()
Even the six-engined Me 323 needed rocket assistance to get airborne with a full load. Maintaining supplies of rocket fuel at forward airstrips was a constant problem. The cabin could take loads as heavy as a Panzer IV tank or 120 soldiers or 60 stretcher patients. One was tested with a 17,700kg bomb, but it broke up in flight. ![]() Messerschmitt Me-323
