The name Haunebu has its origin in the area where the Haunebu series disks were developed, which was Hauneburg, in the Haunetal (Valley of the Haune); North of Hessen, Germany. In 1939 when Germany entered war the name was - allegedly for wartime security reasons - shortened to Haunebu. The development of the later Vril disks did not take place in Hauneburg but in the Vril Arado aircraft testing site located in Brandenburg.
Two Haunebu I disks were built and together made up to 52 test flights.


Haunebu I

Size in diameter: 25 meters
By the time of its construction it was the largest flying disk in Germany. However the rest of Haunebu disks built afterwards - from the series II and III - were larger.

Propulsion: Thule Triebwerk - Tachyonator 7B
Unlike its predecessors the Haunebu I had implemented a new and totally unconventional engine: the revolutionary Triebwerk Tachyonator, made by Thule. As the name indicates, it used both Triebwerk technology which came from the Vril Gesellschaft and Hans Coler’s Tachyonator. Haunebu’s Tachyonator 7B engine affected gravity through the creation of rotating electro-magnetic-gravitic fields.


Speed : 4800 km/h
The Haunebu I could reach the incredible speed of approximately 4800 km/h at low altitude, however the theoretical speed was 17000 km/h and could later be achieved through enhancement of the disk.


Range: 18 hour flight

Weaponry: 2 I 8cm KSK guntowers; 4 I MK 108 fixed
The two experimental KSK KraftStrahlKanone (Force Ray Cannon) used the power generated by the Triebwerk Tachyonator. Called by Germans “anachronism” gun (for not belonging to that time period) the cannon didn’t shoot a laser beam but powerful energy bursts transmitted from the Triebwerk by a tungsten coil, which could pierce up to 4 inches (100 mm) of armor. However the KSK cannons were too heavy for the disk and desestabilized it.

Armor: Double Victalen hull
The outer shield of the disk did not act only as armor but also it had to resist incredible temperatures consequence of the flight velocity. SS metallurgists used a special armor for the Haunebu and Vril disks, which was named Victalen and had been developed already in the 1930’s.


Crew: 8 men
Haunebu I was the disk of the Haunebu series which allowed less crew (model II allowed 9 and model III allowed 32).
