An interesting section from 'Introduction to Secret German Flying Discs =
of World War Two', published by the German Research Project.

"This V-7 project was headed by Dr. Heinrich Richard Miethe, but known =
in the literature simply as "Dr. Richard Miethe". He was assisted by the =
Italian scientist, Dr. Giuseppe Bellonzo, a specialist in jet engines =
and metallurgy. Dr. Miethe produced many different saucer-like designs =
during the early 1940's with many different power plants. Some seemed to =
combine the characteristics of saucers and flying wings.

"But more exotic designs existed. One was based on a completely new type =
of jet fuel invented for the V-7 by an Austrian physicist, Dr. Karl =
Nowak, German Patent #905-847, March 16, 1943. Another design involved =
mounting an A-4 (V-2) engine underneath the V-7 giving it an estimated =
top speed of 4,000 km. per hour.

"The most interesting engine design, however, may have involved burning =
nothing but "air" itself. There is a rumor that the Germans tested a =
reciprocating engine, (like an automobile engine), which used =
atmospheric oxygen to oxidize atmospheric nitrogen. This was said to =
have involved very high voltage sparks to produce temperatures near =
50,000 degrees within the combustion chamber. A similar event occurs =
with lightning. Lightning simply burns the air surrounding it leaving a =
vacuum which collapses suddenly upon itself producing the sound we call =
thunder. This engine was to do the same but, in addition to this, was to =
inject super-cold liquid helium directly into the combustion chamber. =
Helium is an inert gas. It does not burn. For years claims by the =
Germans that the V-7 was powered by helium were cited as evidence that =
the whole concept was a hoax. Now, after learning of the work of Dr. =
Nowak, we know that this very cold liquid could have been injected into =
this combustion chamber for purposes of cooling that combustion chamber =
and also to causing a tremendous expansion as it was heated thus aiding =
in production of motive force of the engine itself."
