Haunebu Test Flight Nazi Germany (1939)
The Haunebu refers to a series of purportedly secret aircraft, or flying saucers. The Haunebu I was the first of these flying saucers to be built by the Nazis, supposedly making its test flight in 1939. The narrative suggests that these crafts were developed under a project led by the SS, utilizing advanced and exotic technology, possibly even involving alien assistance or antigravity technology. These aircraft, developed under the SS’s auspices, were part of a broader effort by Nazi Germany to create superior technology, including propulsion systems and experimental aircraft like the Horten flying wing and the Arthur Sack A.S.6 experimental craft. Some theories even extend into post-war scenarios, alleging the survival of these crafts in secret bases across Antarctica, South America, or the United States. Intriguingly, tales of the Vril Society blend these technological endeavors with mystical elements, positing connections between the Nazis, otherworldly beings, and secret societies dedicated to unprecedented aerial capabilities.
Maria Orsic is often mentioned as a key figure in the Vril Society, connected with the development of the Haunebu flying saucers. As a medium, she is said to have channeled information vital to the construction of these crafts, supposedly receiving this knowledge from extraterrestrial entities. Her involvement is cited as evidence of the integration of esoteric knowledge and alien technology in the Nazi pursuit of advanced aerial vehicles and propulsion systems.
The Haunebu I was the purported initial model of the series, described as a flying saucer with advanced propulsion. Allegedly, there were subsequent models named Haunebu II and Haunebu III, each larger and more advanced than its predecessor, with some sources claiming the Haunebu III was capable of interstellar travel.
One set of accounts goes deep into mechanics, describing electromagnetic or dielectric field effects, plasma vortexes, or “mercury plasma” systems, sometimes paired with ideas about resonance, crystals, or unusual energy amplification. Another set uses looser language—anti‑gravity, “Vril” energy, scalar or radionic waves, and other exotic power systems—leaning more on mystique than engineering.
Some narratives describe Haunebu I as a relatively small disc (often placed in the 25–30 ft diameter range) with one pilot, while Haunebu II is framed as a larger follow‑on model (sometimes cited around 40+ ft) and Haunebu III as an enormous craft (sometimes described in the tens of meters).
Haunebu III, in particular, is sometimes described as having pressurized crew compartments for extreme altitude or spaceflight and specialized alloys with heat resistance or radar‑absorbent properties. Armament claims also escalate at this stage, with some sources naming “Donar” or klystron‑type ray cannons, lasers, or EMP‑like effects alongside conventional guns, as if the disc is meant to be both aircraft and wonder‑weapon in one.
