Condor Wolf

"The four propellers, powered by the powerful BMW aircraft engines of the Focke Wulf Condor, sliced through the pitch-black Polish airspace like steel switchblades in the night. Commanding the secret spy plane was SS Colonel Curt von Wolfsberg of the Schutzstaffel’s Condor Wolf Aufklarungsgruppe (to conceive, explain, and conceal) SS Aerial Photographic Reconnaissance and Intelligence Air Group. Their mission had top-secret priority in Adolf Hitler’s plan to invade Poland. They were to find the enemy’s military targets and convey this information back to the German army commanders for analysis. This was one of the paramount information gathering processes before the mechanized armored Blitzkrieg invasion activated. The reconnaissance had to be done with stealth—without alerting any enemy defenders of their intentions."
