Deutsche Forschungsanstalt Fr Segelflug The Deutsche Forschungsanstalt fr Segelflug, or DFS (German Research Institute for Sailplane Flight) was formed in 1933 to centralise all gliding activity in Germany. It was formed by the nationalisation of the Rhn-Rossitten Gesellschaft (RRG) at Darmstadt. The DFS was involved in producing training sailplanes for the Hitler Youth and Luftwaffe, as well as conducting research into advanced technologies such as flying wings and rocket propulsion. Notable DFS-produced aircraft include the DFS 230 transport glider (1600+ produced), the German counterpart to the British Airspeed Horsa glider, and the DFS 194 forerunner of the famous Messerschmitt Me 163 rocket fighter. (note the two list have not been synchronized (i.e. not all planes on both lists)) List of some major DFS airplane projects (see list by year for a full listing): (incomplete) - DFS Mo 6, target glider (prototypes only), 1936
- DFS 39, Lippisch-designed tail-less research aircraft
- DFS 40, Lippisch-designed tail-less research aircraft
- DFS 194, rocket-powered research aircraft, forerunner of Me 163
- DFS 228, rocket-powered reconnaisance aircraft (prototype only)
- DFS 230, transport glider
- DFS 331, transport glider (prototype)
