Vanadium is a chemical element with the atomic number 23 and the symbol "V." It is a soft, silvery-gray, ductile transition metal. The element is primarily used in various high-strength
vanadium (V), chemical element, silvery white soft metal of Group 5 (Vb) of the periodic table. It is alloyed with steel and iron for high-speed tool steel, high-strength low-alloy
Originally conceived as the Messerschmitt Me 155, the Blohm & Voss BV 155 was Germany''s answer to high-altitude threats like the American B-29 Superfortress.
Vanadium is found in about 65 different minerals including vanadinite, carnotite and patronite. It is also found in phosphate rock, certain iron ores and some crude oils in the form of organic
Vanadium is a transition metal that lies toward the middle of the periodic table. The periodic table is a chart that shows how chemical elements are related to one another.
Pure vanadium is a bright white metal, and is soft and ductile. It has good corrosion resistance to alkalis, sulfuric and hydrochloric acid, and salt water, but the metal oxidizes readily above 660°C.
Page details technical specifications, development, and operational history of the Blohm and Voss Bv 155 High-Altitude Day Interceptor Prototype including pictures.
The Blohm und Voss Bv 155 was a very high altitude fighter which began life as the Messerschmitt Me 155 carrier borne fighter, before changing role and then company, and
The Blohm & Voss BV 155 is a German high-altitude interceptor aircraft intended to be used by the Luftwaffe against raids by USAAF Boeing B-29 Superfortresses.
First conceived by Messerschmitt as a carrier-borne fighter, the Me 155 morphed into a high-speed attack plane and later a high-altitude interceptor known as the Blohm & Voss
From a tail-hook fighter flying from aircraft carriers to a high-altitude bomber interceptor, the Blohm & Voss BV 155 had an interesting and convoluted development history. It was also one
Vanadium is a trace mineral regularly consumed in the diet. It''s found in mushrooms, shellfish, black pepper, parsley, grains, and also drinking water. Vanadium might act like insulin or help...
Pure vanadium is a greyish silvery metal, and is soft and ductile. It has good corrosion resistance to alkalis, sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and salt waters.
The Blohm & Voss BV 155 is an experimental late-war German interceptor mainly designed to counter the threat of the USAAF B-29 raids in Germany. Let''s take a closer look at
Vanadium was discovered by Andrés Manuel del Rio, a Spanish chemist, in 1801. Rio sent samples of vanadium ore and a letter describing his methods to the Institute de France in
The Blohm & Voss BV 155 was born out of desperation, as Allied bombers soared to higher altitudes and German engineers scrambled to build an interceptor that could intercept them.
Vanadium is a chemical element; it has symbol V and atomic number 23. It is a hard, silvery-grey, malleable transition metal. The elemental metal is rarely found in nature, but on
With a fascinating, experimental design, and a development story as chaotic as late war German bureaucracy, the BV 155 might have one of the most convoluted developments of any WW2
In 1942, the construction of the aircraft carrier was discontinued, and the carrier-based fighter was no longer needed. In the same 1942, the company designed the Me 155A high-speed bomber
