^ afraid not

One of the biggest german manufacturer and designer of aircraft in WWII, with expertise in jet planes

This is it it, the Me P.1101. German forefather of the Swing Wing, the wings could be tilted in several angles for tests, but not during flight.





Being stored outside for some time the bird suffered badly until it was picked up and flown to the USA for evaluation; US personnel making some souvenir photos during this time

The Bell (->being the hint) X5, with parts used from the Me P.1101, but using an Allison jet turbine instead of the german one:
