The original design was repurposed as the "CR-990 TAV" and saw service with NASA in 32 seperate operations in 1995.

And here you were thinking that Werner Von Braun was the only thing German that got recycled by "Operation Paperclip".

Speaking of NASA, check this out;

Turns out NASA tells you the earth is flat if you're paying attention.

Derivation and definition of a linear aircraft model
A linear aircraft model for a rigid aircraft of constant mass flying over a flat, nonrotating earth is derived and defined. The derivation makes no assumptions of reference trajectory or vehicle symmetry. The linear system equations are derived and evaluated along a general trajectory and include both aircraft dynamics and observation variables.
