    Historical Background

    The Blohm & Voss BV 246 Hagelkorn was a controlled glide bomb developed by Dr. Richard Vogt, initially designated BV 226 before being redesignated on 12 December 1943. Designed to be released from high altitude (approximately 10,000 meters), it protected the carrier aircraft from ground anti-aircraft fire. The BV 246 was the first anti-radar missile, with the "Radieschen" radar-guidance system among those tested. Approximately 1,100 were produced before the project was cancelled.
