The Jägerstaß didn't even allocate funding for a mockup, let alone a flying
example. By the point in the war when this was really moving forward, the SS
had taken over 'strategic aircraft' production and ordered most other projects
halted - but centralized control was deteriorating and many aviation companies
kept building whatever they were used to, using up additional critical war
resources, while such things as the 183 project danced in their heads. The
BAMA archiv has lots of info on the final couple of months and nothing suggests
a successful test flight, or even a wrk. n., being assigned to an airframe of
this type.

Donate your memories - write a note on the back and send your old photos to a
reputable museum, don't take them with you when you're gone.
