The Gotha-Kalkert 430 was a military transport glider, first built in 1944. The glider was designed by Albert Kalkert. Twelve had been produced by the end of the war, but none of them were used operationally. ^[1] The glider could carry 12 men, and tests were being conducted towards the end of the war to see if it could carry a cargo of 1,400 kg. A single 13 mm MG 131 machine gun was fitted for self defence.
