Can this one be aero-towed or winch launched? Getting the fuel for the small rocket engine might become a problem. That stuff was said to have some nasty habits like catching fire when it comes in contact with certain materials and being extremely corrosive.
i think i saw something online that the US acquired a few after the
war and towed them with B-29's while test pilots checked them out.
Perhaps we need to notify the Commemorative Air Force and see if they
will put a towhook on Fifi!
