The Arado Ar E.560 was designed as a fast, medium-range tactical bomber, and encompassed several different designs, mainly differing in engine number and type. Since the design work was submitted in the closing days of WWII, only a few incomplete documents have survived. For the most part, the Arado Ar E.560 had swept-back wings, standard tailplanes and vertical fin and all versions had a tricycle undercarriage. All versions also featured a pressurized cockpit located in the fuselage nose for a crew of two. Additional equipment included two one-man life rafts, automatic course correction and control, and a variety of radio equipment. Some designs also had remote controlled armament, please see below for the individual Ar E.560 variant information.
