There were four prototype aircrafts under the Haunebu name and they were numbered accordingly from 1-4. BMW were also credited in working on one of these circular aircrafts named the BMW Flügelrad V-1.
This is supposed to be the later version of the "Haunebu II" supposable constructed in 1944.
The 1944, Haunebu II was an aircraft that was rumored to travel at 2000km/h.

2022-10-09 19:04		So this is based off a Revel model kit from like 2017 called the Haunebu II. It was discontinued since Revel made a fake description that claimed some ludicrous things this vehicle was capable of doing, but did not mention that the craft was never actually produced nor existed.

As such they got criticism from German children toy groups and military historians, who felt that the model's description seemed to paint a picture of Nazi Technology capabilities that far exceeded what was actually possible. So the product was discontinued.

One of the things it was claimed to be able to do was fly at a speed of 6000 kph.
