The Akaflieg Braunschweig SB-8 is an experimental single-seat high performance glider built in Germany in the 1960s constructed largely from glass fibre skin over built up balsa wood structure. Two were built; the second of which was later fitted with a high aspect ratio (30:1) wing becoming the Akaflieg Braunschweig SB-9 Stratus.
