The Blohm & Voss P 200 was a design project for a transatlantic transport flying boat during World War II.
During the early stages of World War II, when it was going well for Germany, the airline Deutsche Lufthansa raised a requirement for a postwar transatlantic flying boat with a capacity of 100 passengers.
[3] Its hull accommodated three deck levels, providing luxury facilities for 120 passengers, with additional freight holds fore and aft.
[3] The P 200 was to be powered by eight BMW 803 series twin-radial engines, each driving a contra-rotating propeller and delivering 2,950 kilowatts (3,960 hp).
The BV 726 was a jet-powered development of the P 200, its 700 series number indicating that construction would not begin until some time after the war was over.
